Some points of interest:
* Fast, but not as blazing fast as the Apple silicon Mac minis; definite upgrade over older models such as the 2012 Mac mini + hardware modifications.
* Tends to run warm with simple tasks such as watching YouTube videos or a movie, but gets hot when running VMs. It’s crashed a couple times because of the stress of running a VPN on top of a VM; you might need to invest in an external fan to keep this computer cool.
* The internals are clean and almost completely devoid of dust.
Works great as a budget Mac for light-to-moderately heavy workloads — and, if you like playing with virtual machines, can handle just about any x64-based system, unlike the newer Apple silicon Macs. Extra cooling would be necessary for that purpose, though.
