 The thought occurred to me that by selling a Mac Mini sans keyboard, mouse, and monitor, clearly making it easy for Windows users to use their existing gear (even legacy PS2 usage using the single USB converter, left), Apple gets around the other omnipresent Windows-reasoning for not switching: the two (or more) button mouse (or its absence in the Apple product range).
Since Mac OS X has contextual menus and the facility to handle plug-ins, new converts will more easily make the transition, and wonder what all the two-button controversy was about.
The Mac Mini looks more and more like the Trojan horse, and part of a long term plan so intriguingly illustrated and documented by Paul Nixon here.
