MacMini 1.33/1.5 GHZ Rumors (should i buy now?)

I've been waiting to get a Mac product and with the new rumor of the 1.33/1.5GHZ, 64DDR video card, Bluetooth Update(?), and 8x Superdrive. Here are my sources:

Updated Mac Minis at 1.33 and 1.5GHz have begun to ship despite a lack of any formal announcement by Apple beyond a simple acknowledgement

Here’s a quote from Think Secret: “Sources have informed Think Secret that Mac mini box labels will continue to list the older specifications with no indication of whether the newer or older systems are contained within. The motivation behind this is to help clear current inventory without lowering prices. Essentially, customers are promised that the Mac mini they purchase will have specifications "at least" equal to the label, but that their system may exceed those. Customers who purchase a new Mac mini to find they ended up with the older configuration will not be able to return the system in the hopes of getting the newer configuration without paying a restocking fee.”

The latter has pictures for proof that his was updated.

Now, the big question is, do i WAIT for it to become official? And is it true that EVERYONE will get a 1.5 if you ordered a 1.42 NOW? Some posters stated that "it's a luck of the draw." And I know that the big (roughly)"80MHZ isn't worth arguing" but I'm enticed by the upgraded video card and superdrive. Also, I don't know if I should buy it now, with Leopard coming out soon. Should I just wait for everything to be part of the package, or should I let my "giddiness" get the best of me?

It's not a rumor.

Apple has (unofficially) admited that some boxes come with extra goodness

However untill they officially release the updates, you could get the current machines. Lil birdie told though that next Tuesday should be fun

So should I wait until Tuesday (Oct. 4?) to purchase a new MacMini? Or should I just wait until they update to Leopard as well?

Reach down like you have a set and make a decision. What's with everyone wanting to be told it's ok to buy? Buy it dammit! If something newer comes along, that's life ... it happens.

I may buy one after Leopard is announced. I've kinda wanted one ever since they were first released, but I spent $1k on a PC just last November, so $500 on another computer would have been a bit foolish.

Considering that Leopard is coming in late 2006, early 2007 you're going to wait quite a while

That's quite all right. I'm still in uni, with an extremely tight budget. I should be out by the time it's released.
