NVIDIA Ion platform designed as an alternative to small large computer-driven low-power Intel Atom processor and chipset. With Ion, a chip manufacturer must allow it to come up with desktop computers that offer decent performance and almost all the features available for the entire desktop.

According to Tom's Hardware Resources, a partner NVIDIA confirmed Ion in the upcoming Mac Mini. Moreover, it seems that Apple was among the first prototype device receives from Ion, long before other NVIDIA partners had the opportunity to work with it. This could mean that the new Mac Mini powered by an Intel Atom 330 processor, together with the GeForce 9400 GPU.
