And Haughey spoke thusly:

I see that there is now a whole website devoted to the Mac mini and I realized why I have a bit of my own enthusiasm for the small unit and why I think my friends all want one, even though they’ve got more powerful computers already on their desktops: People like limits.

I’m in perfect agreement with Matt on this one. In fact, I’ve made the similar argument with relation to two totally different situations: raw food and The Grey Album. Self-imposed restrictions can spark some of the most creative output, and I think that this will prove itself yet again as the MacMini’s increasing fanbase will stretch the machine to its limits in ways no one now could imagine.

(I can’t wait to get mine, hint hint.)
