Rumors were rife pre Macworld that Apple were planning on releasing an updated version of their Mac mini product. This said update would include newer processors, faster bus speeds and also the GeForce 9400m GPU/Chipset combo seen in the latest MacBooks. This never materialized, the new mini was never announced, and was soon forgotten without much complaint. Well, new rumors are bound to surface, and it seems that they have, this time in the form of a video posted on metacafe, a video sharing website. The video shows what appears to be an updated Mac mini sporting no less than 5 USB ports, a mini-DVI port, aswell as the newest standard, Mini Display Port. Now the first thing that struck me about the video was, it’s still the same design. Surely Apple would update it? Surely they would change the top to be black?

@foleypod you got it :D |
I’d have hoped for an updated design aswell. The grey apple logo on white just smacks too much of the old iMac. Black and alu would be more in keeping with the current line-up.
Yeah exactly. If it is fake they must have gone to an awful lot of trouble to make it! Also it could just be a prototype body, used to test the new hardware and keep the new design a secret.
