The Mac mini
You may have found yourself looking upon the Mac mini and asking, "Is this a computer?" Well, the answer is yes, it is. It simply can not work by itself as the only hardware. A monitor (the actual screen) is a vital and required piece of hardware with a purchase of the Mac mini, and this can include your HD television! It works extremely well for its minuscule size. With a solid starting RAM of 2 GB, it can be configurable to up to a speedy 8GB. The disk space is excellent, starting at 500 GB, and maxing out at 750 GB. Another, for those a little more paranoid for there hard disk space, would be to get 256 GB of solid-state memory with an extra 750. This little wonder can be bought with an Intel Core i5 or i7 processor with either 2.3 or 2.5 or 2.7 GHz.
Who would this computer be most useful to? Well, there are four types of people when it comes to this subject: the basic user, the traverler, the powerhouse, and the gamer, as shown is the "Choosing a Computer" page. Of course, a traveler wouldn't benefit much, as he/she would have to take two devices: the Mac mini itself and a monitor. As for the basic user, this caliber of a computer is amazing at the price it is listed as. There's no need for a basic user to have such an advanced and speedy computer, but it would prove an excellent purchase. Something else in a much lower price range would suffice, of course with lower satisfaction. Turning our direction towards the powerhouse, now, we see that this would fit him/her perfectly. There are few, and we say few devices that would be able to deliver such a great performance this minuscule price. Gamers, once again, beware of the Mac! It's AMD Radeon graphics processor will give you nothing! Stay away. Overall, this device may be cheap pricewise, but not in speed, preformance, and capability.
