Apple has decided to sell an iPod Shuffle and a Mac Mini. These are total surprises... First, the iPod Shuffle sounds like an awful idea. Really awful. I wouldn't be surprised if this is pulled off the shelves before Christmas '05. The flash player market is not focused on style or image, and unlike the harddrive mp3 player market, Apple has no functionality advantage (ala "click wheel navigation"). Second, the Mac Mini is a genius idea! Absolute genius. Apple can finally gain some market share on Windows, thus forcing software comapnies and game companies to no longer write their code only for Windows, thus attracting more customers, thus forcing more companies to acknowledge Apple's computers, etc. If anyone knows how to work IRC, please let me know.
