    This has worked really well for me! I love it. It doesn’t take much room and is fast and has a lot of memory.

    Purchased this computer to run our Blackmagic Production studio 4K. It handles the software and video recording seamlessly. Couldn't be happier!

    I was at a MAC store comparing various products. My wife's previous Windows machine had a serious hardware crash. I didn't think the MAC mini was an option. Not sure what I thought it was. Went home, talked to my wife, and we went down to Best Buy to look at it. It seemed to have everything we needed. (We did think that her old monitor would work, but we went back to Best Buy and got that also.) Great salesperson who also verified the best price. We are very happy with the MAC mini and thanks for your service in helping with resolving the monitor concern.

    I didn't need all the bells and whistles of the Mac or portability of a MacBook so this was the perfect compromise at a decently reasonable price.

    If you have a TV with a HDMI port and a bluetooth keyboard this will turn your TV in an extra large computer screen perfectly.

    Really like this version of Mac; it’s more affordable than a desktop Mac and you can buy a quality monitor pretty inexpensively.

    I was using my macbook air with hd video cable, sold on eBay and bought the Mac mini. Very good only a little slow compared to macbook air in opening apps. If you can afford it upgrade to fusion drive or flash drive would be better.
