Ditch the power outlet as well. Shit, are you even sure you need an hdmi port? Just send emails to your computer with your phone
I just want a device that must rest on top of a proprietary wireless charging pad that has no ports, no buttons, no status lights, no screw holes and no fan grill.
I want to have to set it up via an iPhone only app, where it will only talk to ‘approved’ wireless peripherals that must have full network access to communicate with it, and sends every bit of data through the web before it appears on screen.
No internet, no computer. Slow internet, slow computer.
Fast internet, not-quite-as-fast-as-you'd-expect computer
Great idea. Many Mac Mini users are entry level users and it's quite lovely that their existing peripherals may not work if they upgrade. Let's keep the Form over Function bandwagon in high gear.
Because you know what a desktop pc needs? Dongle.
At least with a desktop space isn't a concern, and adapters from A to C are tiny.
Or you can add a card.
Unlike on a laptop.
Or you can add a card.
This is a Mac Mini, you can't add or upgrade shit. Can't upgrade RAM, can't change storage and you certainly can't "add a card" as all those things go against the "Apple Vision" after all.
Frankly, I don't consider a Mac Mini to be a desktop at all without any of those abilities
Its still pathetic you need one
I mean I need a hub for my Mac mini and it had USB A ports. I’d personally much rather them give me more multi function USB C and just get a different hub than have half the ports be single function USB A
Meh. Dongles on portables is bigger pain in the ass. And Apple doesn’t have any USB-A on their current portable line.
