Pretty simple: which do you prefer (style-wise), the mini or the cube?

Cube. However, if I could choose to own either computer I would choose Mini as its more powerfull and I am a big into folding.

Cube! - By the way what is the most powerful Cube G4 you've seen? As I might invest in one with my current Powerbook.

Cube, and the Cube can be made more powerful, but its pricey and not worth it

The mini. The cube looks like an art-deco tissue box holder.

When was the Cube stopped in production? The cube is upgradeable but then again the mini (spesh the new one) has the power and is smaller in size, hmmm I think I will go for the mini!

I am guessing that all the old mac users who saw the cube years ago wished they would have bought one. Still love that mac. The new users probably all are going to like the mini as we should probably also.. but our hearts are set 
the macmini I believe was released late 2000.. like july .. then discontinued around late 2001.. probably july also it was only upgraded once, which would have been in january, then discontinued in the month of the expo. A good year run.
