A side benefit of having Mac Mini on your desk is that you will have motivation to keep your desk really clean, so you everyone will see the device there. It's beautiful!

I dont get why Apple didn't make the base model to 16G which will probably cost them $10-12 but can jack up the base model by $60 and sell them like cakes. 8G is small niche market mostly for novice users. Truth is that we all know 8G would be enough 95% of the time but anyone with real technical experience wouldn't want to get anything less than 16G.

I've had the M1 Mac Mini base model (M1, 8GB, 256GB) since December 2020. It is very quiet and fast - yes, fast. Mac OS appears to have some good memory management scheme. //@Anonymous: I dont get why Apple didn't make the base model to 16G which will probably cost them $10-12 but can jack up the base model by $60 and sell them like cakes. 8G is small niche market mostly for novice users.

8GB and half speed 256GB SSD will suffice for 98% of users. Chill with the trolling.

The M1 version doesn't suffer the low band issue in the 256Gb model. And you probably don't use it open a hundred tabs and two IDE windows with Docker containers in the back. Which is standard if you code and debug. //@Anonymous: I've had the M1 Mac Mini base model (M1, 8GB, 256GB) since December 2020. It is very quiet and fast - yes, fast.

They don’t need to sell them like cakes. They don’t care to sell mini as it’s a tiny volume and of no consequence to their earnings. Stop trying to be smart when you are not their CEO who’s actually making the company 25 billions per quarter.

I moved from m1 base model to m2 base and I feel like m2 is slower. I am a typical user using Mac for emails and surfing. Going to trade in m2 for m3 when mini comes out.

Yeah, if it’s the Mac mini with 256gb SSD the m2 version is slower than the m1 version //@anonymous: I moved from m1 base model to m2 base and I feel like m2 is slower. I am a typical user using Mac for emails and surfing. Going to trade in m2 for m3 when mini comes out.

I've a 2018 Mac Mini with Intel chips. The Base Mark Web3.0 benchmark is over 1000 points. Just wondering what's the score for m1 and m2.

With your reason, 99% of the population should settle for a honda civic because they need nothing more. And no, lot more people need more than 8G. You are a troll yourself. //@anonymous: 8GB and half speed 256GB SSD will suffice for 98% of users. Chill with the trolling.

Apple education has the latest m4 16gb 256gb config for $499. I think that’s much better than this

That's what I was thinking. This is almost just here to remind us how good of a price the M4 mini has. //@Anonymous: Apple education has the latest m4 16gb 256gb config for $499. I think that’s much better than this
