First wave of M4 Macs, including smaller Mac mini, coming November 1

I'm just hoping (but sort of not expecting) for a lower cost Mac mini. A little $350-400 macOS puck would be nice to have on the desk.

I'm sure today's lower end mac mini will come down to that range once these new ones drop.

but daddy Cook needs your sweet sweet money :(

To be fair, Apple is still one of the most innovative companies in the personal computing sector. They spend a lot in R&D.

Mac Mini cluster making a comeback, :).

Curious how well these M4's will be for AI models. Love to run Llama 70B+ on my Mac. Or use it to generate the images with Flux

Not much mention of RAM. That seems to be the big constraint in this day and age of excessive software bloat.

Can you put Linux on a mac Mini?

Sure, but why? Asahi Linux is the furthest along to my knowledge.
