The Mini currently only has a Core Duo.

I do believe people have swapped out processors within the Mini for the faster C2D.

Yes, the processor in the mini is socketed and can be swapped out for a Core 2 Duo like the Intel T7200 (2GHz, 4MB L2 cache).

Apple's been lagging with upgrading the mini with Core2Duo. I've been waiting for a while now to upgrade my G4 mini.

That was one of the things at MW that people were hoping that Apple would do. However, they have always snuck stuff out in the weeks following...

Yeah I'm still hoping that will happen. I've got an eager buyer lined up for my G4 mini that wants to try out Macs without blowing a ton of cash.

On a sidenote, I cant believe its been nearly 2 years since I've had my mini. It's been a great little machine with no issues whatsoever, still havent reinstalled the OS or anything, upgraded the original panther to tiger, went thru every update with no problems.

I don't own a mini, but I can't believe it's already been two years since it's release! I can still picture the Keynote when Jobs came out holding it in his palm. The switch to C2D - or a price drop, for that matter - is overdue, IMHO. I've always wanted one, and I hope I can convince my parents to buy one for their next computer.
