[Mac-talk] New iMacs, iLife, iWork and Mac Minis

[sean mckinley]

Hey Gautam,

This may be a little late, but wait a week or two just
in case there a hardware issue. There shouldn't be,
but you never know. And the Mini update is a surprise
having just bought one of the now discontinued models,
I was convinced there wasn't  going to be another
update. There were no rumors of an update in the
pipeline, and the information that mac rumors had was
quite negative. I don't know whats going with Apple
when it come to this end of the market, they would
have said nothing about the Mini last Tuesday, if
someone hadn't asked a question about it. This is an
end of the market I think Apple must stay in.
