Earlier today, I wrote about the photo of what purported to be a next-generation Mac Mini, and noted that some pundits were saying that there were telltale signs that it was a Photoshopped fakearoo. Now a video has emerged that shows the system being spun around so it’s visible from all sides. It, too, could be a hoax, of course…although you’d think that anyone with the energy to put into fraud on this scale would come up with something more scintillating. (Howsabout a Mini with HDMI and Blu-Ray, for instance? Or a MacBook Mini?)
Anyhow, I remain fascinated by the fact that the possibility of an additional USB connector and other changes in port configurations are enough to set off a flurry of Apple-gossip coverage. In the interest of giving the people what they want, I therefore present you with this modified next-generation Mac Mini spyshot of my own (which I debuted this over on my Twitter feed). Sorry, no video…

As if! Apple would have replaced the power with USB, too. Plug in the power anywhere!
