After the price increase (in some markets) last year I knew we would be in for a wait. But I didn't think it'd be until broadwell. Guess it makes sense if there is a major redesign.

This coming Fall (or autumn for a lot of us) is going to be massive for Apple fans.

I wonder how they're going to give each device time in the sun... I hope the mini is not bumped to '15 :eek:

I would say that either there will be a new Mac Mini form factor coming or Apple is going to discontinue the Mac Mini and come out with something different that will appeal to many Mac mini users and also have broader user appeal.

The problem with the Mac Mini is that Apple looks at it as a hobby machine that can be user upgraded and configured to use other manufacturers SSD and Ram.

It really doesn't fit todays Apple philosophy of buy our parts and seal it up tight.

Except for the fact that the nMP is RAM and SSD and I think CPU upgradeable.

The MBA updates that are slated as possible for Tuesday seem nice, but boring. Mainly because no retina.

So, could it really be that we will see some sort of updates for the mini? Like maybe a very boring PCI SSD option ??? :) User upgradeable, of course :)

I doubt it. There were no other model numbers leaked except for the MBA.
