Exclusive: New Mac Mini to Feature CABLE IN CARD
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

You heard it here first, Apple will be adding a “cable in†feature to high end Mac Minis. The hardware enabling this is an ATI card based on their 650 models but specific to Apple. The software behind the TV playback will play in Front Row and may eventually play in an iTunes interface allowing customers to download (buy) episodes they are watching (from supported carriers) commercial free. Apple will try and limit the “PVR†status and make the Mac mini more of a content aggregator.
Small processor bumps and hard drive increases will also be introduced. Stay tuned for some technical details and more news on a possible Mac mini “biggerâ€, apparently a larger Mac Mini with a black face and white body was seen. We will do some research and try to get to the bottom of this rumor.
Update: This is not to be confused with the unannounced Mac Mini upgrades reported today. Apple does showcase minor processor updates, and looks at those updates and a rev not a product update. The Mac Mini with a black face was actually a PVR testing model, makes you wonder what the benchmark is. We will work to get further updates.
Update: Mac mini to get new input – output feature. More to come.
