Q: QuestionDoes this have wireless WiFi can I hook up 2 monitors to it?(3 answers)
A: AnswerYes, you can hoop up 2 monitors. I had 2 monitors set up - horizontal (landscape) and side by side. with my old Mac Mini so it was an easy move to do it with the new M4. I've seen some set ups where there is a mix of portrait and landscape. I've not tried that. This does have wireless WiFi. It also is capable of using 6 and 6E WiFi if you have routers that support that. I just ordered an Ethernet splitter (for VOIP phone lines I have) so that I can use one Ethernet port on my modem for the Mac Mini M4 to take full advantage of the speed boost possible with 6 and 6E WiFi. These are optional. The M4 chip can support up to THREE monitors, if that's what you want. Not Depending on which peripherals you want to add, you may need an expansion hub. Since the M4 only has one HDMI port, you will need an expansion hub to have two or three monitors. I just picked the photo of the 3 monitor set up from the internet for illustration purposes. Best of luck with whatever you decide!Answered by PhillyKat
- A: AnswerThis is literally the only reason why I've held off buying one. I guess they feel its a spec we dont need to know but for some of us who have 2 gig or higher fiber it matters.

Q: QuestionIf i where to give a down payment would that lower the monthly payment via credit card?(1 answer)
A: AnswerOn the product listing, Best Buy has their own branded credit card you can apply for. They offer interest free for 24 months making the monthly payments 58.30/mo. I am pretty sure you can split the purchase between cash/atm/giftcard and a BestBuy credit card that would lower the amount you are financing. In other words, you set your own monthly payments based on the amount you finance with the BB Credit Card and, the amount you put down in cash and the 24-month constraints of the credit agreement.Answered by SnugglesDaTechBear

Mighty Mini
Whisper quiet machine that is a powerhouse. I use the Mac mini mostly to build iOS apps with Xcode as well as some small production projects with Logic Pro X. This gets the job done and then some. I know they say the base model Mac mini is great, but I'm so glad I got this one. 24 months financing through Best Buy is a no brainer.

A Little Powerhouse!
The M4 Pro is an upgrade from my previous M2 Pro and so far I can say that I'm very impressed with the new model. The size is tiny compared to the M2 model but very quick and is in fact more powerful than the M2 Pro. That's not to say there aren't some challenges in getting it. First, there are no USB-A ports, they're gone. If you have legacy equipment that use USB-A ports then you will either have to use a hub or use an adapter. I bought an adapter for my Apple SuperDrive so that it can connect directly to the Mini which is the only way it'll work. Second, I have a HD, a webcam and a printer that need USB-A ports. I have 2 HUBs that have internal storage made for the M2 Mac Mini but are still usable with the M4 Mac Mini. Everything works just as it should. All in all I'm very pleased with the new M4 Mac mini. For my needs it is overkill but that also means I won't feel the need to upgrade for a very long time, if ever.
