New Mac Mini 2023. Apart from the design, apple has improved its most affordable mac by every metric: My guess is that if your requirements are not the most demanding out there, but significantly above the minimum, you will find the new apple mac mini to deliver enough power to keep you happy.
While it may look the same as its old m1 predecessor, the new mac mini sports powerful m2 apple silicon, and an even spicier m2 pro. Fits, flexes and flies in any setup.
