Just showing off really
Two entirely new, major lines of hardware on the same day (the Mac mini and iPod shuffle), updates to seven Apple apps and the announcement of an entirely new one to take on no less than Microsoft Word. Apple really are just showing off. I recon that the Mac mini is Steve Jobs (Apple CEO) trying his hand again at the commercially failed G4 Cube. In fact this is his third attempt at a box-shaped-computer, his first being the now ancient NeXT cube, created in his years away from apple.

The man is obsessed with squares! And I quote: (from Wikipedia)Stories about Jobs' demands for the [NeXT computer] factory and the cube are now legend, including the re-painting of the factory several times in order to get just the right shade of grey, and the institution of a series of time consuming changes to the production line so that the cube's expensive magnesium case would have perfect right-angle edges.Oh well.... third time lucky?
