Mac mini

Design
Connect. Plug. Play.
Mac mini works with both Mac and PC-compatible peripherals, so it’s
easy to upgrade from an older Mac or PC system. Simply connect your USB
mouse and keyboard, then hook up your DVI or VGA display (adapter included).
Next, plug in, turn on and say hello to Mac OS X, the world’s most
advanced operating system.

Pint-sized Perfection
Just 16.5 cm square, 5 cm tall and featuring sleek anodized aluminum styling,
the Mac mini fits anywhere.
Densely-packed Power
Squeezed in under the cover of the Mac mini lies a G4 processor, room
for up to 1GB PC2700 main memory, a Radeon 9200 graphics chip, and a large
enough hard drive — up to 80GB — to store today’s digital
media.

Connections, Connections
Connect your digital devices, such as cameras, iPod, printer, camcorder
or keyboard to the Mac mini over USB 2.0 or FireWire. The Mac mini also
features built-in 10/100 BASE-T Ethernet, a 56K v.92 fax modem, DVI/VGA
port and an audio/headphone jack.

Advanced Operating System
The Mac mini comes with Mac OS X Panther, Apple’s powerful yet easy-to-use
operating system that’s as stable as only a UNIX-based system can
be. Today thousands of software applications and peripherals take full
advantage of its power and versatility.
iLife ’05: Do More
The Mac mini comes bundled with Apple’s iLife ‘05, featuring
the latest versions of iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD and GarageBand. So
you can make a movie instantly — just plug in your camcorder and
let iMovie do the rest. Download songs and albums from the iTunes Music
Store and make your own custom mix CD. Design a coffee-table book using
your own photos, or email your favorites to the family. Record a song,
then burn it to a CD. iLife ‘05 does all that and more.
More Bundled Software
Use AppleWorks 6 to compose a spreadsheet or write the next literary classic.
When you want to take a break, indulge your sense of whimsy with Nanosaur
2 and Marble Blast Gold, the addictive action game. All are included with
the Mac mini.
