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

New NAS product pages are up!

M4 Mac Mini on Amazon is $499. Add the UNAS Pro for another $499. You've got a more powerful compute module with more bays available in a rack-mount setup for less than the Synology RS822+.

M4 Mac Mini. Price match at Best Buy online against Apple’s education discount for $499. You can even request to pick it up same day. Hard to beat for that price. That or have first hand experience with beelink brand and they work great if you need a windows device.

Apple introduces the new MacBook Air with the M4 chip and a sky blue color with a starting price of $999

Insane how much better of a deal MacBook Air got in the last 6 months. M3 --> M4 8GB base --> 16GB base $1,100 --> $1,000 If you have EDU, it's $899. This, along with the Mac Mini, are the best deals in personal computers in my opinion. Typing this on an M4 Mac Mini that I got for $550 total.

It is insane how much more affordable MacBooks are compared to even just in 2010.

Cyberpunk 2077 native M1 Macbook Pro 16 Performance

Yeah, tried it barely on a base M4 mini yesterday. Did a couple benchmarks, Reccomended specs on 1080p ran 30fps locked, because I didn’t realize double buffer vsync was on.
