The concept of the new Mac mini, which we want to believe

Paradox. On April cheat much harder than any other day of the year. But sometimes we ourselves want to be cheated. As is the case with this concept - joke, the guys placed Chinese portal AppleUser.

 This Mac Air, the successor to Mac mini, and , oddly enough , it is much more realistic than it seems at first glance.

Joke itself has been performed by all the canons : screenshot from the site Apple, a detailed description of innovations and , of course, professionally made image . Popularity , however, all of this could not be found . And for good reason. Because Mac mini has not been updated for 17 months, Apple Computer is highly atypical . And if it is waiting for a redesign , which has not happened for four years , we can easily see just such a product , as in the picture . Play some analysts , good Sunday - and at the same time carefully fantasize .

The thickness of the existing Mac mini is due to several factors. First, the physical size of the standard hard drive - HDD. Apple consistently refuses them actively applying desheveyuschie SSD-drives . Trend became evident in 2013, when the cheapest model MacBook Air has become completed 128 -gigabyte SSD, rather than 64 -gigabyte , as it was previously .

The same drive can be placed in the new Mac mini, save very , very much in place in the housing.

Second, until recently, was installed Mac mini DVD-ROM drive . Standard optical drive as the storage medium is rapidly becoming obsolete : even on the new iMac is no DVD- drive , not to mention the MacBook Pro display Retina. No drive to simplify the layout of "hardware" inside the body up to a thickness similar to the current MacBook Air. Regret DVD nobody will : on the Mac mini 2011 they were gone . Everyone can always buy an external drive.

Third, there is nothing stopping this Mac Air to be thinner than the MacBook Air. Most of the area of ​​Air Corps takes built multicell battery . Desktop computer does not require her presence - which means it can be even thinner when complete coincidence for all other characteristics.

The only real limitation of the thickness of the iron will layout , cooling system and external ports - USB, Thunderbolt, HDMI- output. But here you can think of something : for example, horizontally and place ports consecutively . From the card reader can be waived , and USB- ports leave only two . Finally, the air outlet can be inserted into the bottom at an angle , as the computer stand still raises them above the table .

It turns out that the Mac Air - more than a realistic computer. In Apple engineers talent no doubt , especially after the updated Mac Pro. It remains only a matter of price and production. But they did not respond with imagination and superficial knowledge .

To date, Mac mini - the only product in the outdated computers Apple. Therefore, there is a high probability that his long-awaited update to happen if not within the opening presentation of WWDC 2014 , then in the next few months before the release of the next version of the desktop operating system from Apple. If mini really waiting for a redesign or rebirth, we hope that it will be like a fictional but logical Mac Air - and buy it will be much easier than the new iMac in the first six months after the start of sales .
