The Roman Perez Jr. ArchivesMac mini is back, baby.

Tim Cook introduced the update to the "small, but mighty" computer, but senior director of Mac hardware product marketing Tom Boger gave us the highlights. Specifically, all flash storage, up to 64 GB memory, 5 times faster performance when compared to the previous mini, 4 or 6 cores, a host of ports (including an ethernet port), and a Space Gray finish.
