Description

The Mac mini (Mid 2007) was a speed bump on the previous models. Now with the Intel Core2 Duo processors, the speed was higher and the hard drives were bigger. The low-end ran at 1.83Ghz. It still had a Combo drive and an 80Gb hard drive. The high-end configuration ran at 2.0Ghz. It still had a SuperDrive and now had a 120Gb hard drive. Both configurations had four USB ports, optical audio in/out, Airport Extreme and Bluetooth. They also included the Apple Remote.

History
