Comment on Apple’s first Mac mini redesign in 14 years looks like a big aluminum Apple TV
SreudianFlip@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks agoMac Mini M1 when it was released was a good deal compared to same form factor machines at similar prices. Same for the M1 MacBook Air, despite the base RAM.
That advantage lasted a while, too, considering battery life and build quality.

Still running an m1 Mac mini right now, it’s a damn good machine, but the performance gains over the years on the m series chips haven’t really forced me to upgrade yet. As for gaming, I just use GeForce now to play my steam library and it’s awesome, it’s a really great combo. The 8GB of ram is lacking, but I’m using GFN and not pushing it too hard, it’s doesn’t really matter and I don’t notice any meaningful performance problems. I’m also not editing photos or videos, so that probably helps.
