The iPod mini shuffle is starring Apple’s website and its commercials, while the iMac mini, which should be the revolution from Apple, only has a small corner. Maybe it’s not such a good idea to buy a Mac this year: what if the mini was just the final shout, and they were getting ready to jettison the Macintosh line by year’s end if the sales don’t become miraculous? Oh, don’t roll your eyes. It’s not like Steve Jobs isn’t capable of doing just that.
No, seriously, the lack of emphasis Apple puts on the iMac mini really bothers me.
P.S. They’re really cracking me up, the competitors proclaiming loud and proud that they can’t understand Apple reinvented the walkman again, and who’ll quietly release their own shuffle clones six months from now — only ugly and less practical than the iPod, with software that’ll be ugly and less practical than iTunes.

c'est aléatoire, parfois c'est l'iPod mais le choufle pas le mini, parfois iLife, parfois iMac mini.
Mais c'est vrai yen a marre de l'iPod, ça sert à rien, Apple a quà faire un objet util comme un téléphone.

Un téléphone c'est pas utile.
Et un iPod c'est moche.
Je vote pour iRiver.

S'ils en sont à prêter iTunes à Motorola, alors qu'ils refusent de proposer des licenses aux autres players mp3, c'est qu'ils ne sont pas près de sortir un iPhone.
Tu n'as pas acheté un iMac mini ? C'est aussi petit qu'un smartphone, tu peux jouer avec ! :)
(Je voulais dire iPod shuffle, je me suis pas encore habitué à la dénomination.)
