Apple has upgraded its current line of Mac mini computers, plus added a server version. The base mini ($599) gets a slightly faster Core 2 Duo processor (2.26GHz versus 2GHz), double the previous memory (2GB, up from 1GB) and a beefier hard drive (160GB versus 120GB.)


The $799 version includes a 2.53GHz processor, 4GB of memory (versus 2GB previously) and a 320GB hard drive.

The much-rumored server version has also hit the Apple Store shelves. The $999 Mac mini server swaps out the CD drive for an extra 500GB hard drive, providing two 500GB drives. The server also offers Snow Leopard Server, a 2.53GHz Core 2 Duo, 4GB of memory and a 9400M GPU.
