If you do it all together, it may effect it slow or static on monitor because it cause by electromagnet… (not really sure)

The dock would convert the large connector back to multiple connectors. You would have a dock at each place you want to use the Mac mini. Having a single connector would make docking and undocking much easier. Plus, it wouldn’t be too hard to make – just buy a cable for each one of the connectors, buy a couple large connectors, cannibalize the cables, and connect the wires from the stripped cables to the large connector.

If they’re smart (they aren’t), they’d use the gross of connectors they have sitting in boxes in their warehouse to build these asap before Griffin does…

Geese, the last few pics make it look like a big harddrive. That would be awesome to mod one of these into a pc case, so there would be two working computers in 1 box. Kinda pointless tho.
