Apparently they are more environmentally friendly. Built with less plastic and such. I like their design quite a bit actually.

The new goggles also do nothing.

I like that you can get a bamboo case!

A friend is almost convinced to get one, I want him to do it so I can see it.

I think it's pretty comparable in size to the MacMini.. Of course it's cheaper and has better performance, just doesn't run OS X.

If I was buying a desktop, this would be it for sure.

You could probably get OSX on it pretty easily, there's quite a few ways to get it on non-Apple hardware nowadays.
