I don’t get why you would need a big ssd on a Mac mini, just buy an external hardrive with a few tb for whatever awful photos or anime you desperately need to hang onto

400 bucks usd gets you the 6th gen prolepad and an apple pencil. aint nobody need a 12.7 inch tablet that can mine dogecoin

tldr: if yr gonna spend money on this refresh, get a new mba first, then maybe a mini

yeah the regular ipad is a great deal for the price and you probably don't have a need for a hugepad.

if you’re getting a ipad and a pencil to draw then I’m gonna rec the 10.5” as the minimum size you want or maybe a 12.9” first or second gen. 9.7” feels rather cramped for my tastes

if for some reason you’re spending 100 buckaroos on a pencil and you’re goal isn’t drawing then go hog wild I guess

they're prob going to eventually discontinue the mac pro and tell people just to stack mac minis

hell, how does the new mini stack against the pro? i mean aren't you basically only missing the GPU at that point?

i'm in a weird time zone so i missed the apple talk.

is the new Air better than a 2015 Macook?

i need it for web dev and also screen sharing and currently any video conferencing makes my web dev slow down to the point it looks like it's just frozen.
