    The Mac Mini is a good alternative for anyone interested in using a Mac. While this is not the most powerful machine available, it will work beautifully for most people who use their desktop for basic work functions. Decent speed and storage for the price.

    I love the unit. just can't upgrade Ram anymore. I don't get why Apple would do this. Also, no more quad core processor. Don't get me wrong, the unit is excellent. And does what it is suppose to, but if you were waiting for the refresh of the mini, and got this news, I can understand why many are upset. But I use mine as a small server for media and as a build server for my iOS projects. Works Excellent!!!

    The macmini I purchased works wonderful for my needs. It's great if you want a computer that's portable, but don't want to buy a laptop. And you can choose different monitors. It's a great computer for the price and runs faster than my laptop.

    Great Mac workstation for a regular computer price. You can have access to OSx and its softwares for a regular price. Great performance and productivity. If you want a Mac and do not want to expend a lot of money, go ahead with this Mini Mac.

    Good product and performance is good for basic functions. Used the previous version of same product on BlackMagic production for video processing but relatively down in performance compared to previous versions. Not sure of the rational behind in downsizing the performance in technology driven world. Expecting upscaling of the product configuration in future to beat the competition (similar configuration on other products comes with same performance for better price). Best buy buying experience is amazing and apple approach towards this product should improve.

    It's small & takes up little desk space & does everything I want and offers even more. If this new mini is as reliable as my old Tiger PowerPc mini (still running) is I expect to be using this one far into the 2020's.

    A Co-worker who used to work for Apple recommended this as our home computer. It works wonderfully. We have a 4TB hard drive backed up to it. We have all our music and movies stored and have access immediately. We have a 65 " curved screen for our monitor and can sit on the couch with our wireless keyboard and mouse pad, both Apple, and be on the computer. Best ides for a home computer ever!

    Did not think I would ever switch from Windows to Apple. Unfortunately, my HP & Microsoft support couldn't get my Intel I7 to work with Windows 10. Now, I've got an Apple to take me through this turbulent time. Thank You Apple for a product that works.

    Love Apple computers and products - wish I had gotten a mini the last time I upgraded my iMac. Light, small, quiet, with all the power/RAM/ memory as as iMac. When you absolutely do not need the top of the line, this is the way to go.

    I am a long time mac user and decided to use the HDMI port to hook up my mac to my new flat screen TV. Great space saver!! I now have a TV/office space in my tiny living room which freed up space elsewhere, Transfer of all my data from my laptop was breeze.
