A tower for your Mac Mini

So, if you're the happy owner of a Mac Mini just like me... ok, I know, I was bashing Mac for years, but I got one now... and I love it, because it's cool and all... ok, back to the Mini... if you think it's very small... even too small, and you kinda miss the towers, Greenhouse has just the thing for you! This very nice HDD casing for Mini and the speaker set plus 15W subwoofer also double as a USB and FireWire hub.

How come the white LEDs cant match up? that looks really uncoordinated. Also the HDD caddy "separate" looks too plain on the fron. Don't get me wrong, I think that the idea is good, but lacks the cosmetic excellence that I woudl like to accompany mac mini accessories.

Also, stereo separation is going to be fairly poor as the sat. speakers are about 6 inches apart (if that) and most people wont have a tower like that directly in front of them (this is where we keep the screen remember ) and also isnt 15w a bit underpowered for a sub? I'm used to at least 25 (my current rig has a 40 watt rms sub)

Finally, and I really dont want to sound as though I am flaming this product... but is it a great idea to put a hard drive under the mac? The gpu uses the surface the mac rests on as a heatsink. A hard drive case doesnt exactly have a cold temperature most of the time....


Just my two cents,

Right you are, the surfaces would be more than warm.

But what one 'could' do would be to make these as a basepoint for a monitor instead of an uber-tower. That, I think would work.

Guys we are talking about MAC, the Company (Apple) were being a lawyer is more profitable than being a dev, so I am sure that this has been done in purpose in order to not being sued or whatever...
