    Mac mini Pro now. Put all that power in the little box, please. Thank you.

    • Didn’t they announce the Mac mini pro? Or was that fake?_niko
    • No, the mini is the one from 2020 with the original M1 chip in it. It could easily house the same guts as the MBPs announced yesterday.monospaced
    • Not sure why anyone would downvote this. It's quite possibly the ideal machine for most of us who don't need a laptop.monospaced
    • No.

      Even if the price is good, you still need a fucking display for it so better get iMac or MB Pro duh

    • Huh?monospaced
    • No. If you have a display already it’s not better. The whole point is that it isn’t connected permanently to a display. That’s a good thing.monospaced
    • No, why would you need one when both an iMac and a MBP have better specs and monitors included!grafician
    • Weird questions. It would have the same specs as the MBPs, and it's not an all-in-one. This is ideal for many creatives. That was already explained and obvious.monospaced
    • Not everyone wants or needs an all-in-one, and there are countless reasons why an all-in-one is not always the best solution.monospaced
    • It's why the Mac Pro has never had a built in screen. Surely that makes sense to you. You do run agencies, no?monospaced
    • The best reason is that if even a part of your MBP or iMac breaks, you have to replace major parts, or the whole thing, and/or risk losing data.monospaced
    • uhm a Mini is just a glorified media box
      if you want options get a Mac Pro

      also the new versions you can't replace anything lol

    • mono you again talk about things you have no clue about just to be in the conversation by all means lolgrafician
    • nobody uses a Mini as a creative, in over a decade in the creative business Idk anybody using a mini for work

      so you're the weird one with your fetish

    • You totally missed the point. I’m talking about a small unit like a mini with all the power of the MacBook pros.monospaced
    • I’m talking about it with more knowledge and experience than you. Don’t even imply I don’t know. You’re such a condescending prick.monospaced
    • The new MBP silicon is better than the old Pros. So just transfer that to a small desktop. If you can’t figure out how that works then you don’t know shit.monospaced
    • It would be the ideal machine for most pro users.monospaced
    • You have seriously fucked reading comprehension issue. Here you are rambling about how creatives don’t use minis like a moron off topic.monospaced
    • you posted again a rant and didn't actually said anything useful - just stop assuming everybody else is like you
      Told you nobody uses a Mini for work
      grafician
    • based on me knowing hundreds if not thousands of creatives - most of them personally! All Mac users, most use MBPs
      + extra display, some use iMacs

    • And learn to make an argument based on facts not wishful thinking and imagining thingsgrafician
    • I'm NOT suggesting people use a mini for work. I know Minis aren't used by pros. NEVER said they were.monospaced
    • I'm suggesting, like they did with the M1, that they put the newest high performance M chips in a similarly sized package like the Mini. It would be awesome.monospaced
    • That kind of thing would be well received. It's not a rant. You are the one ranting nonsense about something I never said. Dude, grow up.monospaced
    • I never assumed anyone was like me. I'm talking about teh creative teams that upgrade Pro machines and KEEP their displays.monospaced
    • Ah okay, but still, I don't see a market for Minis even with latest chips inside
      pretty sure the Mini M1 was just an experiment
      grafician
    • Also keep in mind these new chips are laptop chips, for the desktops they will have another version M2 I think they called it with more cores/memory on SoCgrafician
