Thanks RAMd®d.
I knew that it would be unlikely, but I thought it would be terrific if Apple saw that vast numbers of Mac Pro users would be thrilled to have a "little" version that was as easy to "play" with as the big brother.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if Apple had a vision of repaying the loyalty of so many Mac fans, by offering the ease of installing RAM upgrades, as well as user selectable hard drive options in the new Mini series?
I don't want to dismiss the fact that, at least, they have gotten rid of the power brick. A small, but to me, very attractive improvement. Now, how about making all of these other features part of the design upgrade?
It strikes me that this wouldn't be difficult from the design stand point, especially since they've had these options in past models. Both RAM and hard drives were accessible at different times in different models.
They would have to know how many Mac users were wanting these features, wouldn't they? Of course, they continuously decried the idea of a bigger screen on the iPhone, until they caved and made it seem as if they were for it all along. Ha! Are a removable battery and a micro-sd slot next? Don't hold your breath.
I guess, pleasing your fan base is not a priority to the new regime???
But how great it would be to be able to by a stripped down Mini and have it easy to install an OWC RAM upgrade and an OWC "Data Doubled" SSD+ a 7200rpm Spinning disk hard drive! I know that a lot of members would drool at the possibility!
As my friend N-OS X-tasy! would say, "it is what it is" :ohsnap:
