Apple Mac Mini 2010

Reviews: Mini PCs

The Apple continues to develop. Ever more compact and with ever higher performance, it packs quite a punch and can easily replace a desktop computer when it comes to office docs, internet and more. For the 2010 model, Apple has reworked everything upwards. Minimalist and compact are two of terms that come to mind when you get ahold of this baby. Entirely in aluminium, the casing inspires confidence with faultless manufacturing quality and finish. In the purist Apple style, only the DVD rewriter slot breaks with an otherwise bare façade. No USB port nor memory card reader at the front of the machine! A heresy for some, this is however what appeals to lots of people when it comes to their Macs, even though this might make them impractical on a day-to-day basis, as is the case with this Mac Mini. It has nevertheless retained all its qualities. The low running noise is particularly impressive. It's no more audible than Apple's laptops. The mains adaptor is nevertheless built into the casing, which is always a bonus as it reduces the cabling running over your floor. The connectivity is all at the back.
