E2: Apparently they've actually got the same area, just MiniATX is a rectangle and MicroATX is a square :|
It's actually because of a difference between the ITX and ATX standards. ATX is just plain bigger, *-ITX was designed for smaller applications, so even if the prefix normally represents a larger unit, it's still probably smaller.

Also, I keep a Mini-ITX in my desk, so I always have a point of reference.

I've never posted pics of the insides of my beige boxes... I should do that when I get home (my desktop that hides behind a pair of filing filing cabinets actually has blue LEDs in the PSU, and my server's PSU cables glow...)
