          The minimum wage is usually that much higher in europe too, that the difference in "hours worked" to get something is not too great. Here in Canada, the minumum wage is ~$7CDN/hour.. 10 years ago in Denmark, it was ~$14CDN

          But back to the topic at hand, I too would like to have one of those mini Macs sitting around to play with

            Macnews.de has some new pictures of the Mac mini. Starting on page two there are some good shots with the case off.

              $172 more for the mac mini in Sweden is still a major ripoff

                  Talk to your government about import taxes...and as I said, chances are you have to work the same hours to get it as we do

                    It has its quirks but I'm very happy with it.

                      For those that think this price unfair, I'd be glad to help you out by buying it in the US and sending it your way...

                        Wouldn't help much. They'd have to get their own power cable, too.

                          power cable kit usually runs about $15.

                            Really, they have fullrange international PSUs?

                              Umm,

                              It's my understanding that the PSU is external on the mini, therefore alleviating any concerns there may be about overheating. The small fan that appears to be in the main unit would only have to exhaust cpu and hdd heat.

                              As for "chewing" the new iPod, Apple have chosen to compare its deminutive size with chewing gum packets in their promotional material.

                                wohoo, the price here is 2099 zł, still worse than in $ but better than in €. I think I'm going to stop upgrading my pc and try to buy this thing :>

                                edit: correction, Apple.pl claims that the price is based on:
                                Euro = 4.1095 zl, USD = 3.1098 zl
                                This rate of exchange is absolutely incorrect, but assuming it is...the price is even higher than in € , no to mention $
                                I guess Apple just doesn't care about this market...
