I was talking to one of my homie Jason last night about the Mac mini that just came out. Talk about cool as shit. For those that have no clue wtf I'm talking about, the Mac mini is a computer that is 2" heigh and 6.5" square. It comes in two flavors, a 1.2ghz and a 1.42 ghz. One of the things I like the most about it, is that Apple will support up to 1980x1080 for VGA and 1920x1200 for DVI. A major step up from the 1024x768 max I have now on my iBook G3.

I think this would be a great addition to my desk at work. Plus, it's very cost affordable as the 1.42ghz bases at $599. My biggest complain however is that there is only one DIMM slot, so you can have a max of 1gb, which is pricey since it has to be one DIMM. Other then that, it looks like an awesome deal, and I can't wait to get one!

One of my homies Jeff sent me a link the other day to an article written by Richard Stallman regarding "Trusted Computing", or as he puts it "Treacherous Computing". I am somewhat familiar with the topic and have heard it discussed by others, but I wasn't fully aware of what it was until now.

Anyways, I strongly recommend reading it: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/can-you-trust.html
