Looking for a Mac mini? Really?

Get an iBook instead. It's the same hardware, and for only about double the price, it gives you a) an integrated AirPort Extreme card, b) mobility and c) a nice TFT screen at 1024*768 as well as a keyboard and 'mouse' (well, a trackpad). Other than that, the hardware's really the same. And with the famous iBook monitor hack, you can even hook up a second display, although through a VGA connection only.
(I've tried again and again to configure 'my' Mac mini the way I wanted it to be and always found myself looking at the iBook instead. I guess my home cinema's media hub will soon be an iBook instead.)
