I've been using the Mini since "day one" and here are the things I would like.
I want it to be bigger!
Yeah, being tiny and all is cool, BUT it is very limiting.

I was much happier with my old Cube than I am with the Mini.
The difficult upgrade of the HD (along with using a frigging laptop HD), only having 1 firewire port and not being able to add at least 1 pci card is really cramping my style.
I know that I am not the type of person that Apple was targeting with the Mini, but damn it the Mini is so non-future proof that it is driving me crazy (I say the same about the iMac).
I do like the Mini. Its small, quite and does 85% of what I want with ease. But, I am already thinking of selling it and getting something else.

OK, what I want for the Mini.

1) bigger case that can take 1 user installed pci card
2) standard of 512mb ram
3) standard 5200 rpm HD that is upgradeable with some ease
4) better video card (I would rather have an upgradeable AGP card NOT a laptop card)
5) 2 firewire 400 ports
