Why Minis are like Macs April 8, 2009
Posted by richard in : Uncategorized , trackbackMAC fan Charles Moore has written a well considered piece on theappleblog, making the link between the Mini and, well, the Mac mini computer.
Me, I’m also a worshipper of both, and the comparisons are so apparent, I’m amazed I’ve not spotted them before.
Macs? Well, they’re cool, classless, not the cheapest but exceedingly well packaged, extremely well conceived and pretty damn trick underneath the surface. This blog is originated on a Mac. Everything you see here has been written processed on a Mac.
Minis? Well, we all know they’re pretty cool, period. ‘Nuff said there.
What’s soon apparent in the piece, though, is that Moore is comparing the original Mini, not the new MINI, to the Mac mini. That car, he says, is more of a rival to Apple’s premium machines.
Interesting.
These really are quite delectable things of envy.
But, a Mac mini can do most of what they do, for much less. While also being, well, the world’s greenest and most efficient computer. The exact same concept the original Mini introduced the world to, back in the day.
It’s a compelling piece. Have a read and see what you think. And try to deny the genius of the wordplay: Mac mini. Mini. Max respect due to both.
Have I (again) solved the great Mini search?
Can you help me buy a Mini in 2009?
