Apple plans to update Mac Mini at October 23rd event

Apple is planning to update the Mac mini at its expected October 23rd event, according to 9to5Mac.

Alongside the smaller iPad, Apple plans to announce a new version of its Mac mini. Sources say that these Mac minis will come in two standard configurations, with different storage and processor options, and a third model that runs OS X Server.

These new Mac minis are said to begin shipping immediately after announcement. Apple last redesigned the Mac mini with a unibody aluminum enclosure in 2010, and last updated the computer with faster processors last summer.

The October 23rd event is going to be a major one with the rumored release of an iPad mini, a 13-inch Retina Display MacBook Pro, updated iMacs, and now updated Mac minis.
