Dear Apple,
I have $1,500 I would like to give you.
I might not be your typical customer, I happen to think what is special about a Mac is the software, not the hardware. I know Mr. Jobs insists that Apple is a hardware company, but I like the software.
At home I have a dual core Mac Mini because I got tired of fixing all the issues my wife got herself into when she tried to do anything. Unfortunately the Mac Mini does not have the power for the HD editing I want to do with Final Cut Express; let alone dual monitors.
I would like to pay $1,500 for a Mac Pro Jr. The Mac Mini & iMac use notebook processors, the Mac Pro uses server processors. I would like you to create a computer that has work station parts and processors.
Thank you for recommending the iMac but I already have screens I am very happy with. I also would like to be able to have a decent video card and additional hard drives.
I do not need a case as 'fancy' as the Mac Pro, nor do I need aluminum. I also will need to juice up the RAM and add hard drives so $2,300 for a Mac Pro is too much..not to mention all the space it needs.
I challenge you to make a case that is easy to access, strong, has room for expansion, and attractive. It is OK if it is beige and has parts that are plastic. I am more interested in the insides & the software, not the wrapping.
Please let me know,
Matt

I second this, it would be great to have a consumer MAC that could be upgraded / modified.
I can not understand why this market segment has been so neglected.
When they jacked up the prices of the Mac Pro's I hoped it was to make room for something between the Mini & Pro.
How about just calling it 'Mac'
Mac Mini < Mac < Mac Pro

I too would like to see a desktop model between the iMac and the Mac pro -
But, Jobs has always said that Apple is a 'software' company... (you can search this) -
Richard,
I thought his mantra was that apple is a hardware company...oops
My original requests still stands! :)

I too am hopeful for a consumer desktop Mac. Hard to understand how Apple continues to ignore this market. The iMac isn't enough and the Mac Pro is overkill for my needs.
