You are now forced to buy some off-the-shelf monitor to match your lovely brushed aluminum toaster...
Apple sticks to high-end displays.

mini + display +kb and mouse = emac, which sells for $799.

They just released the product yesterday. I'm sure they plan on testing the waters first before getting too creative.

Throw some pink fake fur fringe around your toaster and a couple of strips around your after market, cheapo LCD, and they'll match beautifully.
