"If they continue to consider support the Mac Mini that is"

I hope they do, that little fellow has quite grown on me.

Looking forward to this today! Will either be listening to one of the audio streams (which i'm sure will get hosed before they even get going) or reading the updates on MacRumors! Can't wait to hear (and SEE!) Leopard!

I hope they do, that little fellow has quite grown on me.

I think people have been paying too much attention to the speculation that the mini is going to be discontinued. The only systems that Apple is dropping support for in Leopard are the G3's.

Good, some maturity from Apple is welcome. But, honestly, I think they shut up for a short while after Leopard was delayed itself.

I agree it's nice to see Apple focus on their own work rather than making comments about what others are doing, but seeing as Apple designed Tiger to be their "Vista beater", I don't really think that the Leopard delay is so relevant...

I'm very eager to see what Apple has in store for my next OS though. There isn't an awful lot I'd change in Tiger, and from what I've seen from Leopard alphas, most of that seems to have already been changed. Simpler/more powerful support for Windows shares was high on my wish list as I live in a flat that has 7 Windows machines and only 2 Macs on the network. I've seen a couple of screenshots of Leopard with a Sharepoints-esque dialog box for creating shares, and I'm really hoping that I won't have to individually mount shared folders to access them in Leopard.

Well, I hope so as that will certainly be helpful. A friend of mine who just recently lost his notebook is looking to pick up a Mini but is afraid that it might be outdated pretty much soon, he doesn't want to rush into his purchase. Considering we all use Maya, LightWave 3D 8.0, Adobe CS3 and all that, our machines have to be powerful.

I am hoping they upgrade Mac Mini's, they are the cheapest Macs in India and yes! the high end mac mini costs about 1000$

so u can well imagine how expensive Macs are in India

The Mac Mini here is about RM3299 but I got mine for RM2999. The Macbook Pro is about RM8000 or so and for that price and I could get two good notebooks or three good desktops! Wish they were a bit cheaper and that there are student rebates :cry: :angry: .
