Im really tempted by an M2 mini but my light use case means i can probably get a few more years from my 2020 intel mac mini…. Its running sonoma, office apps, and safari flawlessly… and I see no benefet with regards to processing power versus my M2 Macbook Air…

I do have one hope… although 8 GB RAM is more than enough for what i do currently… i hope in 3 or 4 years time that the base model has at least 12 GB RAM (ideally 16) given that id hope to have a new Mac running at least 5 years. The costs for RAM/SSD options are hideously overpriced :/

$500 for brand new M2 mini?

The prices of the used M1 minis on eBay are going to have to come down more than a bit. The 2018 Intel minis are holding their price really well, I assume because they can run Windows and Linux.

I just saw a review of a Beelink GTR7 Pro. The Mini has some serious competition. $800 for 32 GB RAM and a terabyte SSD.
