But what do you do with it? I'd only get a Mac if I were doing graphics or audio, and somehow I don't think that's a very graphics and audio editing savvy computer.“Inside every sane person there’s a madman struggling to get outâ€

You buy it for your wife as a present since she only browses the web, checks email and listens to music. Then, when nobody is around you tinker with it and overclock it and make it look prettier and....MWAHAHAHA!Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice, pull down your pants and slide on the ice.

I think it would be hard to make it look prettier.
But I'd like to have an OS X box. A *nix box with professional applications? I'd love it.

You buy it to go with that nice new iPod pregnancy tes... err... shuffle.
Actually I'm thinking of getting one to use as a media centre of sorts. Having a central place for access to photos and music (since I use iPhoto and iTunes heavily) that the rest of the family can get to on their own would be nice.“And, remember: there's no 'I' in 'irony'†~ Merlin Mann

Do they indicate the melting temperature ???
I mean the cube had so many heat issues, this one is even smaller so it's very likely to melt down
The good point though is that it's a Mac you won't see...System : ASUS A8N SLI premium, Athlon 64X2 3800+, 2Gb, T7K500 320Gb SATAII, T7K250 250Gb SATAII, T7K250 250Gb ATA133, Nec ND-3520, Plextor PX130A, SB Audigy 2, Sapphire Radeon X800 GTO, 24" Dell 2407WFP.

I see the fan vents on the back.
The cube was fanless, I think.
Plus, the aluminum case has to help some, assuming they used the exposed metal wisely.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.

Nice things like having services OFF by default help keep it more secure.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.
