heesey1010 Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 is iWork really worth it though? I mean no "Cells", just keynote and word...for 80? 70 dollars more for entourage and excel (student version of office) also catch: iWork can only be installed via DVD drive. This might mean new things to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroChaos Veteran Posted January 11, 2005 Veteran Share Posted January 11, 2005 he is kinda right though. if anybody else released a product that only had one function, and didn't even have an lcd, it would be laughed at. apple can put a spin on things that no other company is capable of.

threetonesun Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 Hey, if you plug a mouse and keyboard into the mini ... aren't all the USB ports gone :wacko: Nice little concept, but that hurts it's use as much of a home box without a hub.

sundayx Veteran Posted January 11, 2005 Veteran Share Posted January 11, 2005 imo ipod shuffle is really, useless sorry guys. i wouldnt go for it, no screen mp3 player? even creative moved away from that. but when i saw the pictures of mac mini, i laughed so loud, cause i was so surprised how they fit a mac into that thing, i mean, wow. incredible. sleek, amazingly small, and powerful. i might look forward to getting one when tiger comes with it. well, thats in prob 6 months time. DAMN MAC MINI I LOVE IT and whens the keynote gona be available for stream/download? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After you plug both up, you still have two USB ports to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astronomyluna Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 does anyone know if the iDVD will work with external dvd drives? it makes sense for the mac mini for this to be finally implemented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrZoidberg Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 But why do you need a screen? I always use the "shuffle" on my iPod mini, hardly ever look at the screen except to check battery levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

threetonesun Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 the mouse goes into one of two of the keyboard's USB ports.

Also if you've a Cinema Display too, you'll have FireWire and USB2.0 ports on the display as well. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
