My 27-inch "iMac"

This is my work computer. I do miss my 27" iMac Pro. This M4 Mac mini is superior to even that beast of an Intel Mac in basically every other way but the form factor.

I used bracket to mount an Intel NUC with a monitor and an VESA arm (I already had the double NUC bracket but they sell a single one

I can finally throw away my PC

You can already buy shuttle pcs with (probably) those specs for $400-$600 (have a look at gmktec). For a console (which Valves sells it like) you will always expect lower prices than equivalent pc prices (for obvious reasons). You can literally get a M4 mac mini with 16 GB shared RAM for $600.

Apple Event 2025 dialogue was very out of phase between L & R

Not disagreeing BUT holy shit is using Mac OS and a new M4 mac mini SO much better than anything pc/windowsnfor audio. Windows 11 is a cancer.

How much would you pay for a trash can in 2025?

The only reason do this is for the funsies. I scored one for $200 shipped, 12-Core / 64 GB / D300 in a bulk listing where it was a lottery for the GPU config, some people got D500s and D700s. It did do AI and Logic Pro better than the ram starved M1 Mac Mini with only 8 GB of RAM. I suppose if you w

【Question】I want to buy a Mac Studio — Which is better: the M4 Max (36GB) for $1,670 or the M1 Max (32GB) for $800?

For light-ish use, I’d try an M4 Mac mini before you spend any more than that. Mine holds up to a lot of use, and prior 16GB RAM Apple Silicon Macs were able to take way more punishment (and remain fine to use) way past any reasonable expectation. My heavy use Macs are an M3 Max MBP (36GB) and a M2

Do I really need the Mac Studio?

Coming from those specs you can totally “get away” with a baseline M4 Mac Mini and I’d go as far as saying it’s going to be a game changer for you.

Is the Mac Mini a success story for Apple?

Interesting perspective from Indonesia here! Though we don't have an official Apple Store yet (only authorized resellers), the Mac Mini M4's base model pricing here at around 9-10 million IDR has been creating what I can only describe as a "conversion wave" of Windows users to macOS. The pricing hit

Linux players on Steam hit an all-time high for November 2025

That was my scenario as well, but my work apps happen to be Adobe, so I just bought one of those M4 Mac mini's, which are absolute beast of machines for like 500 bucks, and my main system is now Linux, and I will absolutely never go back to Windows.

The Best Mini PCs

Mini PCs are something I’ve really come to appreciate over the past couple of years. I started using one as a secondary machine for my desk, and now I can’t imagine going back to a bulky tower for everyday stuff. They’re small, quiet, and sip power compared to traditional desktops. The crazy thing i
