Best Mac I’ve owned!
This is a super fast Mac in such a small form factor. Plays games really well too!

Excellent Value and Excellent Service
I’m leaving Windows for Mac, so this computer is completely new to me. Setup was both easy and difficult for me. The setup process utility worked quite well, but each step had a “save for later” option, so I assumed, based on my Windows experience that certain set up steps could left for later when I understood the Mac eco-system better. But some things really needed to be done as soon as possible. I advise that new users NOT skip any setup steps at setup time and then reverse the steps you don’t think you need later when you have a better understanding of how things integrate.16 GB of ram is plenty for serious and advanced digital photography, simple video editing, and creative writing. However, the 256 GB of SSD is a little small for a home directory and the business of running the PC itself. If this computer works out for me, I will give this one to my wife whose usage is far more modest than mine, and I will buy one with a 512GB SSD.It’s fast and responsive and very quiet. If you have any Linux experience, you will see a strong similarity in the base OS. It’s the first Mac… anything that I can say is a good value for the money.I suspect I will be buying another one very soon.

perfect family computer
I can’t say enough good things about this little computer. I was looking for something small, compact, and affordable for a family desktop computer for my younger two kids (9 &11) so they can learn how to navigate using a computer at home, while also being taught Internet safety somewhere I can keep a close eye on them. This was the prefect solution, because it’s so small, I was able to set up their computer next to mine in my very tiny home office. As an added bonus, I can now do my work at my computer, while my kids play on theirs, and we get to spend time together that would normally be just working hours. (I’m self-employed, and spend an unfortunate amount of time cloistered away in my office.)Also, setup was super easy, because we all have various Apple devices. Added bonus is that I don’t have to worry about the younger kids breaking it the way I would with a laptop or tablet (aka something portable with a screen), nor can they sneak it during a time when they’re not supposed to be on screens.All in all, highly recommend. I might even be looking into one for my parents’ to replace their old-as-dirt Windows 7 desktop computer!

This Tiny Monster is a Beast! (Mac Mini M4 with 24GB RAM)
I’m absolutely loving the 2024 Mac Mini with the M4 chip! I went for the 24GB RAM configuration, and this little machine is a productivity powerhouse.My work revolves around heavy browser use – countless tabs, web applications, and online tools running simultaneously. The Mac Mini handles it all flawlessly. The M4 chip is incredibly fast and efficient. I’ve never experienced such smooth performance, even with dozens of tabs open and multiple web apps running.What truly amazes me is how quiet and cool it runs, even when I’m pushing it hard. My old desktop sounded like a jet engine, but this little guy is whisper-quiet. Plus, it takes up barely any space on my desk!

Great upgrade
Wow! Gotta LUV Apple!! Upgrade an old MacMini to this latest version.Super fast and the upgrades well worth it.Used a external hard drive time machine backup to transfer ALL files to the new one with ZERO issues.Took a few hours but looks like the new mini is working great.Apple support is ,bar none, the greatest!! Any questions answered and they’ll walk you through it step by step if needed.USE Time Machine backup to transfer your files in no time!!!Plug into new one and follow the prompts.So easy and simple!Could have used some extra memory but I didn’t want to wait till March.Just add and external memory hard drive for cheap these days.

“Power to weight ratio” short king
I’ve owned Macs since March of ’84. This unit is faster, quieter, more powerful, and more energy-efficient than any I have owned. Connected to an OWC Thunderbolt RAID, it serves over 15TB of TV episodes, music, and movies to my AppleTV and other devices on my home network. It runs Adobe Premiere and AfterEffects efficiently and drives a pair of 34″ ultrawide displays without a stutter or flicker.I recommend this as an ideal unit for most use cases.

SHOCKINGLY fast. Fairly slick
Overall works pretty well. Some of it is nicely done. SHOCKINGLY fast.It does seems difficult to get the system to give you the text sizing (and overall sizing) throughout that one desires. I had to change the resolution I run the monitor at etc etc etc. It took quite few hours to create a screen I could see well. This appears to be an Apple weakness compared to Linux.

Very Nice. Very Affordable.
This was perhaps, the easiest computer set up I have ever gone through.Once, running I was surprised how FAST this little bugger is.I just ordered a second one as I run multiple trading apps throughout the day and need to display everything on multiple Samsung displays.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07L9G1BFX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1
