"There exist companies with names that you've never heard of, pushing cheap mini-PCs with outdated specifications, lower build quality, and lackluster support. This makes a lot of these mini-PCs not very good options for serious work or fun. That's where a small form-factor computer like the Mac mini comes into the picture. This is as close to a true desktop PC replacement we've had, with enough under the hood to keep you running smoothly for years."
