Apple Refreshes Mac Mini – Goes Insane on Price Differences

First things first: Apple refreshed their Mac Mini computer. Nice upgrade I have to admit. But there is also a downside. And as so often it lies in the price…

Update: as journalist and Apple user Thomas Benkö just noted, are the new prices CHF 300.- higher than for the old system.

Country US-Dollar ($) Swiss Franc (CHF) Euro (€) Difference
USA $699 CHF 798 € 572  
Switzerland $876 CHF 999 € 717 + 25%
Germany $988 CHF 1’128 € 809 + 41%
France $976 CHF 1’113 €799 + 39%
Spain $952 CHF 1’085 €779 + 36%
Canada $725 CHF 828 €595 + 4%

Of course the US and Canada prices do not include taxes (usually around 10-15%). But even with that added, the Swiss Mac Mini is 10% more expensive.
I am particularly sorry for my German friends… 🙂
