Mac mini has plenty of ports to connect the peripherals you already have — including your HDTV. And it’s got more graphics horsepower and lots of storage. But what you do with Mac mini, well, that’s all up to you.
Plays well with others.
An incredibly compatible computer
If you already have it, chances are you can use it with Mac mini. Plug in your own display, keyboard and mouse. Turn it on. And just like that, everything works together. You can even swap peripherals with another desktop computer. That’s one of the great things about Mac mini. You can mix and match it with just about anything.
Mac mini comes to the big screen.
It’s easy to connect Mac mini to the biggest screen in the house — your HDTV — courtesy of a built-in HDMI port. Plug in one HDMI cable and start enjoying content on your Mac mini in brilliant HD. Like home movies, the Internet and your photo library. There’s also a handy control that lets you easily adjust the output on Mac mini to fill even the biggest HDTV screen. And when you just want to listen to music, you can play your entire iTunes collection through your home entertainment centre, or stream it to a set of speakers in any room via an AirPort Express Base Station.2
Plenty of ports make it ready for anything.
Mac mini makes things happen. It can connect to any digital display right out of the box. In addition to HDMI, Mac mini comes with both Mini DisplayPort output and an HDMI-to-DVI adapter, so it’s ready to connect to the Apple LED Cinema Display or a third-party display you already have. You can even connect two displays to see more of your photos, films and files. And there’s a built-in SD card slot, which makes it easy to grab photos and videos from your digital still or video camera. Mac mini gives you ports galore: four USB 2.0 ports and one FireWire 800 port, so you can plug in your keyboard, mouse, iPod, iPhone, iPad, digital camera, DV camcorder, external hard drive, printer and just about any other device you use.
A great little performer.
More memory. More oomph.
A little Mac mini goes a long way. With up to 8GB of memory, Mac mini supports twice the memory of the previous generation. So now you can run more applications at the same time. Mac mini is powered by a 2.4GHz or 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, with a superfast 1066MHz frontside bus and 3MB of L2 cache for a nice little performance boost. Which goes to show that size can be deceiving. Configure your Mac mini now, only at the Apple Online Store
Souped-up graphics.
Mac mini refuses to act its size. It gives you next-generation
NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics — the fastest integrated graphics processor
on the market today — and speedy DDR3 memory. With 48 processing cores
and 256MB of shared video memory, this graphics processor delivers up to
twice the performance of the previous generation. It brings more
pixel-pushing power to the latest 3D games and graphics-intensive
applications. And you’ll notice a big difference when you
work with high-resolution photos and
high-definition video. The most surprising part? You don’t have to
sacrifice efficiency for speed. The NVIDIA GeForce 320M is more energy
efficient than its predecessor. All of which proves you really can do
more with less.

Storage and memory. There's room to grow.
Personal space.
Now you can get a 320GB or 500GB hard drive1 and pack in your photo libraries, movies, music, files and more, more, more. You can also play and burn all the DVDs and CDs you want with the fast, slot-loading SuperDrive.
DIY memory.
Thanks to a removable bottom panel, now it’s easy to open Mac mini and add memory. Just a slight twist of the panel and you’re inside Mac mini. Simply pop your memory into the SO-DIMM slot then twist the panel back on. And you’re done.
