The little brother of the iMac, the cousin of the MacBook, the Mac mini is the often overlooked desktop computer of the Apple Macintosh line up.  Originally launched in 2005, it was intended to be a less expensive method for first time Mac “switchers”.  Priced at $599, to this day it is still the cheapest (legal) method of owning a Mac, yet still had not caught on in the same way the iMac or MacBook has.  It just doesn’t have the sex appeal of the iMac with its massive all-in-one display, or the portability of the MacBook, leaving some analyst to predict its demise nearly every product cycle.

“I don’t have 2,000 Dollars to waste on a Laptop” ”I don’t have the Money right now” ”Macs are too Expensive” These are the responses that I hear when I try to persuade people to buy a Mac, and most of the time I can’t argue, for its true! Apple Laptops are expensive. One Apple Macbook Pro is roughly equivalent to buying 1,200 $1 Hamburgers from McDonalds!! But…It’s Worth it. Now we must give Apple Credit for trying their best at making their products as affordable as possible by dropping the price. Now remember, You get what you pay for; I am confident in saying that: If you buy a Mac, you will NOT be disappointed in your purchase. You get what you pay for.
