Nice to see some love for the Mac mini from Boing Boing Gadgets and TUAW last week. The mini being short for both miniature and minimalist. Reliable and affordable and as bullshit-free as Apple’s non-iPod hardware arm deigns to get. Contraindicated for the dreaded Power User. Non-portable to encourage offline living. A cool little tabletop brick of blankness. It’ll die on me sooner or later, but quietly.

SDH

I’m Scott David Herman, I’m an American living in Canada, and I’ve been running erasing.org since 1999.

The expatriate life is very glamorous. I live and work on the fifth floor of a mid-rise glass-and-concrete ant farm situated in the abandoned ruins of downtown Hamilton, that legendary city many call the most beautiful smoke-spewing slag heap in all of Southern Ontario.

I enjoy staring into open books, mentally rotating Shakespeare’s skeleton, stacking objects in my quote-unquote office, and chopping at the Parnassian permafrost in the company of my wife Laura.
