thing is will all the mini windows based machines(Acer Revos are the same) is they all seem very under specced compared to the Mac MiniOriginally Posted by spark240
Alienware X51 looks pretty good, and similarly priced to the MacMini. If only they'd do a BluRay on the entry level model ....
Inspiron 660 looks nice & compact, but again no BluRay option (at all).
The form factor of the MacMini takes some beating.
Net Top specs, really compete with AppleTV rather than any serious computer - they can just about cope with video streaming playback.

It's a bit daft comparing something that costs £500 with something that costs £200.

Or even £350. Especially considering it is much smaller and therefore more reliant on cooling.
A better comparison would be with a small form factor desktop rather than a Nettop
The MacMini entry level model has a Dual Core 2.5Ghz i5 chip vs Acer's i3 1.5Ghz single core - not a good comparison.
Really surprised Dell abandoned the Zino.
PC manufacturers don't really seem to make Mac Mini rivals anymore.
I know - it's really odd.
I suppose everyone is waiting to Intel to define a form factor (like they have for the Ultrabook)
Ultra ITX gives people the Mobo & backplane, and you can get really powerful bareboards.
think Dell chose to focus on the Alienware X51 ??
