What you see right now is the product of several weeks of brainstorming, tinkering around in Photoshop, staying up late with SubEthaEdit and a significant amount of trial and error.

Okay so first it was the Core Solo to Core Duo CPU swap that was all the rage. Now it appears as though Intel’s upcoming mobile processor, codenamed Merom, works in the Intel Mac Mini flawlessly and boasts up to a 19 percent speed increase over the 2.16GHz T2600 Core Duo (keep in mind, the Core Duo Minis that Apple sells only sport the 1.66GHz model).
