"Over priced 09/30/2007
By Dave9110 from Los Angeles"

"Pros: None
Cons: Pain to use, cables everywhere"

"Thought this might be cool thing to use, WRONG! I had some leftover
PC parts, monitor, keyboard and mouse so I though I'll give a mac a
try. I get cables all over the place, slow performace and OSX has got
to be the most annoying system ever. I returned it within the two
weeks return period. I will never buy another mac again. For the same
money I can buy a complete PC system that looks and works better."

"Would you recommend this product to a friend?: No "

Hmmm, did he somehow manage to end up with MORE cables when connecting
his PC peripherals to a Mac than he had with his PC? How did that
happen? :)



Because with a real PC, you can run the cables behind the desk thereby hiding them. With the Mac Mini, you have to leave it on the desk or you can't access the DVD drive so the cables are everywhere.
