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
I suspect that many Apple enthusiasts would like just what you are selling, that's why Apple (unintentionally) catered right to us once! With the Cube! Of course Apple got burned....horribly. The mainstream didn't give a crap about it, and the enthusiasts couldn't buy enough to keep the project in black ink.

Has the market changed, making a cube replacement (essentially what you are pitching) a viable product now? I have no idea, but Jobs was kicking ass at Apple until the Cube put the company back in the red in 2001, not sure he wants to play with that hornets nest again yet
