I love the idea of it, and I love how tiny it is. Will probably get one when money isn’t so tight.
But I was curious if the power button was accessible without lifting it. And it genuinely isn’t. Why does Apple like shoving important IO and buttons underneath the device. Good thing it’s light?
Oh and a funny thing was the staff had to loosen its mount on the table so you could turn it on.
To be fair, it was a pretty vague anecdote with dubious relevancy. If someone joined the Hyundai community and said commented on the 2024 Elantra thread that they hate the Elantra because their 2002 Elantra broke down, they’d probably get downvoted too.
Apple has been making the Mac mini for 20 years, across 3 different processor architectures and 3 different body styles. With no details or timeframe, your anecdote is pretty pointless.
If you’re at all curious, the M4 Mini benches absurdly high for a computer of its size & power draw, and is one of the best performance per dollar products that Apple has ever put out according to pretty much all reviews. So you might give it another go if your entire opinion of the product line is based on an i3 Mac Mini you owned 10+ years ago.
