Most people, therefore, should stick to getting the base memory package and upgrading if they need to. It's possible to order a Mini with up to 16GB of RAM, but adding your own third-party memory is really easy, and a lot cheaper. Our review sample is a 2.3GHz Core i7 - quad-core - with 4GB of RAM with a 1TB hard drive. The difference is, it's a fraction of the size. It's a lump of aluminium that has been shaped into an impressively small case, into which goes a computer that's powerful enough to compete with most desktops. Lovely to look atĪrgue if you want, but Jony Ive always manages to produce something that will impress the most hard-hearted of Apple sceptics.

What we wanted to know, was how the Mac stood up as a desktop PC, and how it worked as a replacement for our Windows 8 media centre. Although, at times, there are some clear issues too. But in terms of a more hassle-free life, the Mac Mini has some advantages. Even Apple hasn't managed to totally avoid such problems. For a start, in any virus outbreak, it's usually a human that opens the thing and infects the computer. Now we don't subscribe to the idea that Mac is inherently more secure than Windows machines. Sure, gamers want a big powerful machine with loads of cooling and a super-powerful graphics card, but businesses, casual users and internet cafes want small machines, and preferably ones that are secure, stable and a little less susceptible to viruses.
(Pocket-lint) - Sitting here looking at our Windows-based desktop and, next to it, the Mac Mini, we're starting to wonder if the full-sized desktop is running toward the end of its lifespan.
