Something odd is happening. When _dB_ posted above, I clicked on my link through Tapatalk, and it worked. Still does - though it might be cached(?) my side. When I clicked on the link now, in Safari/on my Mac - saw the same error as you described. Furthermore, when I search for Mac mini on their site - nothing comes up?

They are probably updating their site. I tried to check out their gaming section but it just came up blank. Maybe it will be fixed soon.

Well you can browse all the Macs except the mini through the menus. IC website.

See iStore Online is selling the "replacement" midrange mini for R9799
http://www.istoreonline.co.za/category/15/mac-mini

It comes with 8GB RAM and same 5400 1TB drive. If you take the IC deal and you add 8GB of RAM (~R1300), the new and old models cost approximately the same.

I basically comes down to i7 vs i5 and HD4000 vs Iris (both 8GB and 1TB HDD). 2x thunderbolt might be usefull?

Personally I'll rather take the i7 HD4000 vs the i5 Iris. Some might prefer the better graphics.

Edit: Link still works when browsing through Tapatalk, I logged in and tried to add to cart...popup shows no stock.

True that - thought long and hard about the HD4000 vs Iris. Primarily went for the former for the i7's Quad-Core (I do some video rendering/ripping every now and then), the good IC deal - and most importantly - the option to add a 3rd party SSD. The new one would have seen me paying significantly more for the SSD option - R14k for the Fusion...

After my MBP's SSD/HDD combo, there is no way I could go back to only HDD - which makes a strong case for the 2012, graphics-ability (or lack thereof) aside. 2x TB not something I'm likely to use.
