It lacks an internal 56k modem, but an external Apple USB Modem could be purchased for US$49.

All Mac mini models have the internal components cleverly enclosed in a tiny and elegant 2.9 lb, 6.5 inch square, two inch tall case with a built-in speaker and an external power supply. Additionally, all Mac mini systems ship without a display, keyboard, or mouse, but numerous Apple and third-party options are available.
