Yep, personally I'd only buy a Mac mini if it was 10-20% bigger and came with
some real ports - say serial, parallel, and SCSI. Then it'd be a nice compact
well-designed machine with some useful connectivity too. It seems that no
matter what the USB-advocates say, bodging that sort of stuff on top of
Universal Screwed-up Bus plain doesn't work...

My only
issue with it is that it only has 2 USB ports and no mic input so by
the time you've got your kbd/mouse plugged in your remaining port is taken
up by the USB sound module though I guess I could plug that into the
keyboard too.....the hard drive is also slow....
Can't you just plug a USB hub into one of the ports, and make it into a big
maze of cables if that suits your desires?
