It took just 46sec to encode 53min worth of WAV files to 192Kbps MP3s.
The Apple Mac Mini delivered noteworthy performance in our tests. This is on top of an already costly asking price, however, so the Mac Mini doesn't represent great value.
It will set you back $210 for a slightly faster 2.26GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, $140 for an extra 2GB of DDR3 RAM (for a total of 4GB of memory) and $140 for a 500GB hard drive. It doesn't ship with a keyboard and mouse, but the cost of ordering a more powerful version of Mini is reasonable for a Mac. Wireless connectivity includes 802.11a/b/g/n as well as integrated Bluetooth 2.1 with EDR. The Mac Mini comes with a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, an NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics processor a 320GB hard drive and 2GB of DDR3 RAM. Though some of the biggest changes have been to the Mac Mini's design, the internals have also been upgraded. On a positive note, Apple has placed the Mac Mini's power supply inside the unit itself, so there's no longer a bulky power supply brick attached to the cable. Having the power button and the SD card slot on the rear of the device isn't completely practical, especially if you plan to add the Mac Mini to your living room entertainment hub. Both are located on the rear of the device, along with an Ethernet port, a mini DisplayPort, four USB ports, a headphone jack, a FireWire port and the power button. The Apple Mac Mini has added two features that were desperately missing from previous models - an SD card slot and a HDMI-out port. The panel is easily removed by twisting it to the left.

On top, an embossed, black Apple logo is a nice design touch, while on the bottom, a removable plastic panel allows you to upgrade the Mac Mini's memory - a feat not possible on previous models. Corners are smooth and refined, and the front of the unit is as minimalist as possible, with just a single disk drive slot and a tiny power light. Like most Apple products, the new Mac Mini is sleek, good looking and superbly constructed. The Mac Mini is a great option for a living room computer, but its steep price tag may turn many potential buyers away.

The latest version of Apple's tiny PC - the aptly named Mac Mini - adds a much-requested HDMI connection, an aluminium, unibody enclosure and a removable panel that lets you upgrade its memory.
