I presently have a 2002ed (2001 w/2002mobo) Quicksilver with a dual 
1.8GHz processor and lots of HD storage inside and out. I don't like 
iMacs and don't need the Mac Pro, so what I'd like to see is a Less-Mini 
that offers more expansion.
What surprises and disappoints me about the latest Mini is the FW800 
instead of eSATA. Seems kind of late in the game to provide FW800 when 
eSATA is in and FireWire appears to be on the way out. eSATA has it all 
over FW800 in terms of data transfer speed.
