A Moment of Silence for my Late Mac mini

My Mac mini (the first Mac I bought) bit the dust Friday night. I took it to the local Apple Store Genius Bar hoping the power brick was the problem.

I decided to wait until Mac OS X Leopard is released before buying a new Mac mini (and get AppleCare with it this time). Here's hoping Apple releases Leopard soon!
