[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 880987, member: 56379"] Nothing in this world is perfect...but I would like to think that if a company wants to continue selling a product & remain profitable...that they continue to improve their products. Maybe you do or maybe you don't remember when Apple back in the Mid-90's or so had a problem with batteries "bursting into flames" in some of their laptops. Well how long to you think that could go on unresolved?...well Apple addressed the problem in a BIG hurry!!! Give this a read: [url=http://en.allexperts.com/e/p/po/powerbook.htm]PowerBook at AllExperts[/url] If Mac Mini's had an over-heating problem...as the original poster's "PC World" friend suggested...then I'm sure Apple would be very sure that successive products did not have the same problem. Yes I agree that successive generations of Mac Mini's would not be exempt from heating issues just because previous generation's were free of problems. But when a product like the Mac Mini that was first released in early 2005...and is currently on something like it's 5th generation WITHOUT over-heating issues...that's a pretty darn good track record to expect that generation #6 will also be free of over-heating issue's. The main point is...the original poster's "PC World" friend was wrong about saying that Mac-Mini's have over-heating problems...and no one should decide against a Mac Mini due to heat related issues. - Nick [/QUOTE]
