Our last video podcast showed what a fantastic media player the Mac mini is when connected to your home cinema. But the new £499 price was a bit of a shocker. However, tonight Apple have added some of the previous generation minis to the refurb store at just £379!
Update:Well that didn’t last long! Check this link and Keep checking back on the refurb store, more may appear.
Do the GMA950 graphics cut the mustard when dealing with 1080P?
plexapp.com etc don’t take advantage of the new graphics yet anyway so there’s little or no difference (new gens have sightly faster Bus speed from memory). Plenty of people are playing 1080P MKVs etc with the 2.0Ghz previous generation mini.
