Notes

The 1.83 GHz model used an Intel Mobile Core 2 Duo T5600 CPU, with 2 MB of L2 cache. Both models used a new Intel graphics chipset, which used a portion of main memory. Though reported as a 64 MB graphics system, the chipset actually used a minimum of 80 MB of RAM, resulting in a maximum of 432 MB of RAM available for system use in the base system. The low end model had a 24x/24x/16x/8x Combo CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive, and the high end model had a 24x/24x/16x/8x/8x/4x/2.4x CD-RW/DVD±RW/DVD+R DL SuperDrive.

The Mac mini (Mid 2007) was a speed-bump to the previous Mac mini (Late 2006), to include Intel Core 2 Duo processors, larger hard drives, and 1 GB of RAM. Prices and other specifications were unchanged. Both models were discontinued in March 2009, and replaced by the Mac mini (Early 2009).
