This really is ridiculous...Here is a review of the new Mac Mini computer by someone who obviously has spent their entire life around Windows computers. Aside from the reviewer's complete ignorance surrounding Apple computers and the Mac OS, there are numerous factual errors as well. It's an amusing read though, in a sad sort of way.

My favorite quote from the article: "during normal operation the unit makes no sound whatsoever. This could make it very difficult for a novice user to know whether or not the computer is on."

Umm, yeah. Hopefully Apple can fix that in the next version of the Mini.
