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.

So, the "real PC", which is sitting "behind the desk" in this scenario
of yours, has the DVD drive where?

Great argument, Brian! But I can fully understand why you would want
to hide your PC behind your desk... :-D

The real pc is a tower and sits in to the side (most desks have a spot).

Since the tower isn't a pizza box like the mini, the DVD drive is still
within reach.

The Mac mini even fits in your desk drawer, Brian! Surely you're not
using THAT image as an example of good desk tidyness? That would have
cables running everywhere. Ick.

And again, how does the cables for that PC become more when connected
to a Mac mini placed in the same spot? Still no answer?
