    I love it. Only thing, it might be a little bit faster (my MacBook Pro runs faster). Unfortunately, it is not possible to add memory in this machine. BUT. For this price it is the best choice. I plugged it in to 32 inch monitor and feel like I bought iMac. It is absolutely enough for my photo editing programs, but can run slow for video editing.

    Exactly what you'd expect from Apple. Fast, plenty of connections, can run dual monitors ... and it's pretty nice looking, too

    I love the Mini's and own several. They are very powerful and with the small footprint they are able to fit into some tight working areas.

    This is the 3rd mini mac I have owned, only reason for purchasing is for more memory as I use mainly for art, design work and large files. This one has exceeded my expectations with it's speed and OS system is very nice and easy to use.

    We use this product for video production in a church setting. Extremely user friendly awesome product. With the Mac Retina Display it's incredible graphic even with a 27" TV HDMI input the graphics are great and reliable. Had for 2 months now and had no problems even with 60 gig video projects.

    My last Mac mini is still going but is finally past the point of running new updates so it was time for a new one. Perfect size physically and the 1 TB memory and solid ram is more than enough for my needs

    I've been working on a MacBook Air for a long time and needed more hard drive space. The Mac Mini is the perfect solution for me, it has 1 TB of space, but it's not as expensive as the all-in-one Macs. I already have a monitor that works with the HDMI cable, and the picture quality is great.

    G5 tower Video card went out. Couldn't get card fast enough, needed to finish photo job. Was able to use my Photoshop and Capture One software versions. Prefect solution on the fly. Was able to hook up older Wacom tablet, Firewire HDs and Apple Cinema Display with appropriate adapters.
