Mac mini Test Drive
Posted by Sandy
Weirdness.
The Mac mini Test Drive promotion at the online Apple Store is dead.
There are plenty of reasons to try something like this, and plenty of reasons not to, but it's thoroughly weird to launch it then shut it down. Was it rogue marketing or a premature launch of a planned promotion?

I'm thinking it was a premature promotion launch. They will launch it at a later time. Sometimes things get posted on sites before they were intended to be.

I Think they were going to do this after they dropped a G5 in the mini later in the month, it was posted to early. Think about it, You wouldn't want to start a promo like this if you are about to upgrade the machine in three weeks, everyone who bought one would return it immeadiately and get the upgraded model. They would have to have the promo end for at least thirty days before they could upgrade the machine.
