IT Review: New Mac Mini released on 15June 2010

Well its time for another product opinion! Yup since I don't actually own this over price piece of high tech rubbish I cant really give a full review but this wont stop me from making causal remark about how overprice and useless this it. Mac Mini looks Height: 3.6 cm Width: 19.7 cm Depth: 19.7 cm Weight: 1.37 kg As expected from Apple, this product is a beauty; it is just 3.6cm deep and its aluminum shell which give it a clean and simple feel. Mac Mini specs 2.4GHz or 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo chip Nvidia GeForce 320M graphics 2GB DDR3 RAM (can support up to 8GB) You will notice that there is an increase of processing power, a better graphic card and more RAM then the last Mac Mini product.

I can tell you that no 3D devices have being very successful, example: the Virtual Boy Games The problem with 3D gaming system is that it is very hard to make use of the 3D property into any gaming. Imagine that you are a game developer, how can you make use of the 3D property of the new Nintendo 3Ds and produce a game that no other game system is ab...
