The Macworld Expo was today, and Apple unveiled several new products, including a new Macintosh that's selling for under $500 (without monitor), and a new flash based iPod. Check'm out:

The Mac mini looks like a neat little machine. I think it's aimed at people who have been wanting to try a Mac but didn't have the money to do so before. The system is not top of the line (it doesn't have a G5 for instance), but it's pretty nice and comes with a lot of software - OS X Panther, iLife 05, Apple Works 6, Quicken 2005, and two games.

I'm hoping the Mac mini does really well and gets Apple a lot of switchers. They make terrific stuff.

I prefer IBM but I do like macs. That is all we used in school because they are superior when you are doing just graphic design.

Must.... Have... iPod Shuffle...
I'm a fairly new mac user and I must say I never cease to be amazed at the stuff Apple puts out.

I honestly think the iPod Shuffle could have gotten a better name. At first I thought you could only shuffle playback. But the price looks quite competitive for a 512 MB player.

And the Mac Mini looks really cool.
