hi guys i was intereted in buying a new apple laptop,then i noticed an imac mini,can someone please advise what this is best used for,at the minute i have a sony vaio,do i need anything else to make this work thanks
Mac-mini is a small footprint, lower end desk top usually needing you to buy a keyboard, mouse and screen to make it work. It's fine for general desktop stuff but probably a bit too underpowered for Photoshop and stuff.
Now I am confused,will I need a separate monitor to hook this up to then,I understand I will need a keypad and will it then work just like a MacBook but obviously smaller,or just buy a MacBook but the steep price is my problem thanks
I think you are confused a Mac Mini is just a small form factor iMac, not a notebook/macbook i.e portable device. So as with a PC it will need a Keyb/Monitor/Mouse.
The question you should be asked is what do you want to do/use it for?
