The component parts used for the Apple iPhone 4 Free, purchasing a total of $ 187.51. This is the result of a study by iSuppli.

For this, market researchers have an iPhone with 16 GB of memory 4 decomposed and estimated the cost of the items based on manufacturers’ price lists and order quantities. In the just under $ 188 is not included, what Apple spends on shipping, manufacturing, advertising, development of software and patent licenses.

"Over the years, were the material costs for the iPhone in the range 170-180 dollars," said iSuppli’s Kevin Keller to BusinessWeek. "It seems that Apple try to stay within a certain budget."

New Mac mini more expensive than previous model

Apple’s entry-level Mac is flat but has also become significantly more expensive. The price of the computer is only 3.6 inches high in the standard 809 €. The first time, an HDMI port and an SD card slot on board.

Apple has introduced a radically revised Mac mini. Compared to the fujitsu fpcbp144 battery previous model is shrinking the overall height of just over 5 to 3.6 centimeters. That breadth and depth have increased from 16.5 to 19.7 centimeters. Thus, the computer looks at first sight, from smaller, the volume is 1385 cm3, but with almost on a par with the older model (1397 cm3). However, Apple has integrated the new Mac mini power supply into the case. By eliminating the external power supply, therefore constitutes a volume of the overall savings of about 20 percent. The price for the standard model is 809 €. The server version costs 1149 €.

First for Mac Mini: HDMI connector and SD card slot.

The new Mac Mini is a SATA hard disk with a capacity of 320 gigabytes. With the used Geforce 320M, the 256 MB of memory using the model in terms of graphics much more value than the previous version with a Geforce 9400M with 128 MB of memory. In standard configuration, Apple offers the computer with a 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo. A version with Core i7 i5 or is – unlike the iMac – not available. Who wants a powerful processor can access only to a Core 2 Duo at 2.66 GHz. The faster CPU more expensive the computer, at € 135.01.

The connections are all located on the rear panel and include four USB 2.0 ports, one FireWire 800 and one Gigabit Ethernet port. stands for external monitors as before the mini-display port, and – for the first time the Mac Mini – and a HDMI connection. While the former can drive monitors thinkpad r50 battery with a maximum resolution of 2560 times 1600 pixels, the connection via HDMI only allows the connection of displays with resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 pixels.

Also new is the SD card slot, which is, however, to use due to its position at the back of the case in practice, only circumstantial. As Apple CEO Steve Jobs to Blu-ray as compared to a similar view Flash represents must give Apple fans and the new Mac Mini to a corresponding drive. Instead, use the familiar Apple SuperDrive. In terms of wireless radios, the Mac Mini is at the height of the times and IEEE 802.11n. With Bluetooth devices can also connect the smallest Mac. In terms of energy efficiency, the new improved computer power consumption by 25 percent. For stationary desktop it needs only 11 watts.

Compared to previous models, the new Mac Mini is much more expensive. Instead, the basic model costs € 519, almost 300 € more. Therefore, it is equipped with 2.4 GHz processor in terms of something better. In addition, the drive offers twice the capacity. Compared with the high-order version of 2009 with 2.53 GHz processor, 4 GB of memory and large hard disk is equal to the additional charge 100 €.

The view in the U.S. Apple store also reveals that German users to the new Mac Mini will have to pay much more than Americans, which other products like the Macbook is not the case. So in US-Store is the small Mac costs $ 699 and $ 999 Macbook. In the German Apple store requires the manufacturer for the Mac Mini 809 € and 1015 € for the Macbook. So while the Macbook in Germany purely by the numbers produces only slightly (copyright fee) costs more, it seems the Mac Mini out differently Dell Latitude D620 Battery.
