Perfectly crafted and hitting well above its weight, the 2.5GHz Apple MC816B/A Mac Mini is a real over-achiever. All you have to do to get started is plug in your own display, keyboard and mouse, turn it on and everything works together. But you don't have to just leave it at that.

Faster processors and new OS

Doubling the performance of the previous generation, this small desktop packs a punch. The latest Intel® CoreTM Processor i5 comes as standard with the Mac Mini, and the 2.5GHz version brings impressive power and 4GB of 1333MHz DDR3 memory. When you're using processor-intensive applications you can increases the clock speed up to 3.4GHz and Hyper-Threading lets each core run two threads, so OS X multitasks even more efficiently. The MC816B/A Mac Mini comes equipped with the new and improved OS X Lion to keep things running smoothly.

Storage space

Whether it's photo libraries, films, music or anything else, you will have plenty of space in the 500GB hard drive. 2GB of fast 1333MHz DDR3memory will keep everything running smoothly, and if you think you need more, a removable top panel allows you to pop it open and add some more.

Thunderbolt

Featuring two 10-Gbps channels for data transfer, the new Thunderbolt technology is phenomenally fast. It's 12 times faster than FireWire 800 and up to 20 times faster than USB 2.0. Perhaps more exciting than this scorching speed are the expansion capabilities this technology offers. You can daisy-chain up to 6 Tunderbolt peripherals, including the amazing new Apple Thunderbolt display and the Apple LED Cinema Display. And, thanks to DisplayPort technology, your Mini DisplayPort devices plug straight in too.

Ports and WiFi

In addition to the unique Thunderbolt technology, the Mac Mini is ready to make the most of standard connections. You can use the HDMI port and HDMI to DVI adapter to connect to a third party display and you can even connect two displays to double the fun. A built-in SDXC card slot allows access to photos and videos from your digital cameras, and four USB 2.0 ports and a FireWire 800 port let you plug in just about any peripheral. There's also Bluetooth for extra wireless options. The MC816B/A Mac Mini - 2.5GHz comes with the latest 802.11n wireless technology which automatically connects to your WiFi network for immediate enjoyment.

HDMI and graphics

With an HDMI cable you can connect your Mac Mini to an HD TV to make the most of films and TV from iTunes. You also get a handy control that lets you adjust the output on Mac mini to fill any size of HDTV screen. If you just want to listen to music, you can play your iTunes collection through your home entertainment centre, or stream it to a set of speakers in any room via an AirPort Express Base Station. If you're more interested in gaming, or just want super smooth graphics, then the Mac Mini comes equipped with discrete AMD Radeon HD graphics processor with 256MB of GDDR5 memory.

Full of potential and innovation, the Apple MC816B/A Mac Mini is a world beating mini desktop.
