I need a new machine for my software development. My current setup ain’t cutting it no more. First I looks at a Mac mini but Apple products are over priced and stingy when it comes to spec.
Are Geekdom mini pc’s good machines?

The new MacBook Air with the M4 chip appear to be incredibly and excellent for software development. The baseline models are a good entry level.
Apple devices are too stingy when it comes to specs. and I already have 2 laptops and a tablet. I want a desktop, but one that's portable. The only Apple device that's cheap are ipads, but they're useless because they don't run mac OS. And if they ever made an Ipad that ran mac OS they would probably charge $1899 for the base model.

Okay, so you don’t have to be on a Mac machine necessarily. It’s not that specific.
Just get an M4 Mac Mini
