The fact you can buy a new Mac mini M2 for the same price in 2023 (with student discount) is actually quite impressive. And the performance increase is just unimaginable back in 2005

Out, but it's overpriced. The original Mac Mini was affordable enough to lure switchers in, starting price for the new one is too high to achieve this.
You could always tell when Steve was disinterested or disliked a product. The Mac mini to him was not what he wanted in a consumer product, with all of its wires and *gasp* separate monitor. But they had to hit this price point as more people were converting to Mac via the iPod gateway.
My first Mac and it still works to this day :) Went for the 1,42 GHz model and upgraded the RAM to 1 gb. Lovely little computer :) Also have it's 2014 brother :)
The Mac mini was introduced in January 2005, using PowerPC G4 processors. The second generation Mac mini, introduced in February 2006, carried over the design of the PowerPC version, but used Intel Core processors and other upgraded components, and made wireless connections such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi standard. So this video was uploaded a year after its original release date
same! i'm guessing what bothered him was the idea of people hooking up random displays/keyboard/mouse to it so it wasn't the typical apple streamlined look. they made the right decision releasing it tho. i'm sure they gained a lot more mac users as a result. not to mention people using it as a headless unit too.
I’m watching this video with mac mini later 2012, recently I have upgaraded RAM to 16 GB 512 ssd, the speed is stanning. the only regret is the graphic card is only supporting 1080p not capbable with 4k.
If you switch from Safari you unlock the other resolutions. It's both Google having a monopoly and wanting you to switch to chrome and Apple having a good VP9 codec. The GPU is also a big factor as most Mac:s have iGPU:s.
We had an Apple IIGS growing up, but my parents bought a Gateway PC in 1997 to replace it. It was the G3 iMacs in my university's science labs running OSX that inspired me to start using a Mac again. So off to eBay I went and purchased a used G4 Mac Mini. Been using Macs exclusively (except at work) ever since!
If this is the mac mini, does this mean it's going to go out of style in a couple of years and be replaced by something smaller? The Mac Nano might be a pretty cool computer :)
Matt i’m sorry, replacing plastic with aluminum, removing the optical drive, changing ports, thickness, speed/powera and size all the time? doesn’t seem like it hasn’t changed.
I had a I-Mac and then a G4 back in the 2000s. Then switched to Mac Mini instead of an I-Mac as I have a monitor, keyboard and mouse. Plus my cintiq. It has been in service with me for years and continues to do so.
I use a 2012 quad-core Core i7 Mac Mini, and while it has no optical drive (I use an LG external USB Blu-Ray burner with it), it's an amazing little desktop, especially since it's got the RAM upgraded to 16 GB and I also replaced the spinning hard drive with a 960 GB solid state drive. And now we have the 2018 Mac Minis. They're not that cheap anymore, but they are REALLY beefed up! (And they even have user-replaceable RAM again.)
wow this brings back memories, I bought the mac mini 2 days after it was available. It was my first mac, since then (2 years ago) I've bought 4 mac laptops. The Mini is still used as my HD media center with a 2TB Drive full of media. I'm saving up for a MacPro now
The 2005 G4 Mac mini was the first new computer that I bought with my own money! I promptly bought a 5th gen iPod video after that! I still have it in a closet somewhere in my house! I had the 1.42ghz version with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. I was 19 at the time. Brings back good memories!
I wish these had an HDMI port for both easy video and audio connections to my TV...would have made a great media center system...this is the main reason I got a small Dell Hybrid instead (basically it's Dell's Mac Mini), even though the video card is weaker, it is more than enough for playing 1080p movies. I hope Apple adds HDMI connections in their next model of the Mac Mini, I would get it to replace the Dell Hybrid.
mac mini actually revolutionized installation art in galleries. They used to put a laptop, desktop pc, or DVD players along with a power strip and lots of wires...just to play a video clip or slideshows but one mac mini could replace all kinds of device mess.
Funny to think now, but this model at $500 was upgradable (RAM, hd, optic drive), had a graphics card (ATI if memory serves). The current model is all soldiered together, starts at $800, and has only integrated graphics.
@@PIZZA_KITTY Hi January 2020! I guess you don't know what's coming with covid-19. It's gonna be crazy. Go get yourself some face masks and hand sanitizer. Don't ask, just go!
I got one of those Intel Mac Mini and I really push this thing with only 2GB of RAM. I run Windows 7 and Snow Leopard at the same time and do tons of video rendering. These tiny things ARE AMAZING!
Made me switch, the basic Mac mini (upgraded over time to 1GB/160GB), from my very powerful desktop PC 3GB/2x200GB/Radeon 9500 (hacked as 9700 Pro ;) ), just because processing power is one thing, usability and pleasure another one. Kudos!
I feel like a lot of the laughter here was just because this was all so Apple and Steve was just effortlessly doing this casual new product launch that everybody wanted
@Rifalltoo Mac mini was introduced in January 2005. Apple did have a small form-factor computer befofe the mini, the Powermac G4 Cube, but it was considerably more expensive.
@AmazedAlex According to WolframAlpha, $499 dollars in 2005 is, inflation-adjusted, $586 today. Mac mini starts $599 these days, so the inflation-adjusted price has stayed more or less the same.
RIP Steve Jobs. He was one of the greatest and it’s sad that a little over 10 years ago, he had cancer and died. We’ll all miss him for selling his great Apple products.
@M1sterHamilton you are wrong, i just bought a used Mac Mini G4 off eBay and it came with only two USB ports. Anyway, i traded the Mini off for a 1.5 GHz PowerBook G4 Alu 15 inch.
@AmazedAlex well, they are only 100 dollars more with a better processor, more memory and a larger hard drive. The only problem is is that here is no DVD drive, but you can add one for 80 dollars, so you are basically right.
Back to Apple's golden age, where everytime Jobs would say "let me show you" and hold it in his hands, the crowd in awe, impressed by the sheer amount of innovation and features every year. Now it's just smartphones that ever all so similar, newer processors into lacking, overpriced computers. I wonder what will bring back the crowd cheering for something worthwhile.
I have the last version of the mac mini G4 and i am really happy. is very nice. And very small. I am weating for a new version with Core 2 Duo but i have time to wait because is very good the mac mini.
Leopard is coming with Boot Camp and they said something about XP/Vista included in some way, shape or form. That and Mac is less than 10 percent of the market, they need some leverage.
I have a 2009 Mac Mini that I use as an HTPC. It actually works pretty well in my opinion. However, I would never buy a model past the 2012 version due to soldered RAM, which is completely ridiculous on a desktop computer (and any computer in my opinion).
I love how Steve was like it's called the Mac mini *laughter* and then people were like oh shit he's serious
Reminds me of the macOS High Sierra announcement
Yeah, making a definite statement about it being a "stripped down" Mac had people confused because Jobs would normally brag about the power of the electronics made by Apple.
