Get an M1 Air. Its great as a secondary computer, Mini may be cheaper but you may have a harder time finding a purpose for it.

Lol did Linus steal someone's lunch money back in middle school...

Do people not understand supply and demand?

I had an M1 base model and it was fine for basic usage. That said I am pretty good about only keeping what I need. When I buy for my parents I generally load up on the RAM and storage so that they won't call me up for tech support.

Pretty expensive for 2GB :) Anyway good TBW. Seems to be TLC, no-DRAM.

It doesn't look that bad with RT on. Might get one to play around with and retire my RX580 in my HTPC.

I want 32 Eth to run my own validator. Going to DCA into it.

Intel is sure good at product timing. They will release these cards just when a flood of mining cards will hit the market.

Not the same unit, was my first thought as well but then I noticed that the build dates are different.
