I agree to a large degree. Sam's comment was rather egotistical and I just
couldn't help myself and had to let him know that I prefer a PC. That's all
there was to it. Not everyone on this list uses a Mac because that is there
platform of choice.

Well, yes and no. As it stands it is affordable, but if you want to add
anything to it, that changes quickly. External expansion is more expensive
than internal expansion and Apple also has a knack for designing computers
that can't be user expanded (like changing the internal hard drive or
memory). Someone mentioned (and I'm not sure if it is true) that the memory
in the mini is not user installable. I personally suspect it is like the
iMac I currently have which has one user serviceable slot and one technician
serviceable slot. Don’t know though.

For those who really want a Mac, and can't afford the current lineup, it
will make those people happy. I don't think that is a very large number of
people personally. But hey, who am I to say? I don't have a crystal ball.
