i am not a fan of apple. it’s true that i do own apple stock, but that was long before my allegiance to the pc world. but i have to admit that apple does come up with great ideas. and today’s announcement of the [url=http://www.apple.com/macmini/]mac mini[/url] is actually rather remarkable. so much so that i am actually tempted to get one, just for fun. it’s affordable (cheap in apple standards) and it’s rather cute.

i’m not sure what i would really do with it, but it is kind of neat. what would have been neater is if it had a TV out, but i guess that would be asking for a little too much. that could have made it an excellent entertainment hub, though.

i think i’ll go check out the new mac mini at the apple store soon. i wasn’t as excited to hear about the [url=http://www.apple.com/ipodshuffle/]ipod shuffle[/url] which i think is kind of lame. i think that apple might be able to make a go of it though based just on their reputation, though.

but what i think is really innovative is [url=http://www.apple.com/iwork/]iWork[/url]. at its price point, i suspect that it will blow office out of the water. good for apple, it’s about time that they got out of their dependence with microsoft for a good office suite.
