My Tissue Box from Apple

Dear Santa,
My Mac mini is being modified lately as a Tissue Box, and it's going to sit at the top of the water tank and serves its glorious duty for the rest of the days.
Uncle Santa, I don't mean to be greedy. But, I have been longing for a better Mac mini that can take up my daily routine jobs, powered by a faster Intel's Merom CPU, give me 4GB of DDR-2 RAM and a faster 7200 rpm hard disk drive. As a result, I may finish my tons of photo batch processing work in Adobe Photoshop and C1 PRO, and yet, do not let my Mac turns out a 100% full load of CPU, while the Mac OS X Tiger has been paging out rapidly in an unwanted situation.
Please let me know if I am asking too much from you.
Merry Christmas, Santa! Give my love to your reindeers.
Humble voice from Tomahawk.

I can hardly wait for my Christmas pre-shopping recon mission tomorrow. Cool! I got a "Lift-Off" and mission to Hong Kong on Dec 07. It is now about time to pack my bags and get ready to go for crazy shopping.
Christmas gifts for the family, Pentax lenses and parts, brand new eyeglass prescribed with Rodenstock progressive optics, toys and gadgets, seasonal foods and gourmet, lots of items to buy for the Boxing Day. Let me go Chapter 11 and I will not regret for the days, because Christmas is just around the corner.

Believe it or not! My Apple® 20"-inch Cinema Display stands out of the crowd.
It looks just accurate and tack sharp as brand new after one year, color temperature set at D65, 6500K, Gamma 1.8 and Luminance at 230 cd/m2 that these specifications are currently calibrated by a Pantone ColorVision® monitor calibration instrument, tune-up by using Spyder2PRO 2.2-50 software.
