Many Apple fans like old things, and as the company got, with those products, to be what it is today. However, getting with them is almost impossible, and to achieve it, they will be little functional at the time, so they would only serve as an ornament.
However, with this product they have launched, we can Convert a Mac Mini, a retro macvery similar to the first ones that existed, but with the difference that this will be functional, and not only aesthetic, so we can use it as a personal computer.
Transform a Mac Mini into an old MAC
The accessory only works for the latest MAC MINI models with M4 Chip, because its design has changed compared to the previous versions, and wanted to take it out for the last one. It is very simple to use, because in a base we would connect this equipment, and the rest would be in charge of the product, which comes with everything necessary, including the screen.
But as a picture is worth a thousand words, and in 9to5mac they have analyzed it, we leave you the video so that you can see its operation, and if it really is worth it, or it is to throw money, although this will depend on the taste of the consumer, since Cuiroso is, and enough.
The most curious thing about this product is that as the MAC Mini M4 allows more than one screen, we can use it as a simple very aesthetic base for our computer, and at the same time as a second monitor, because although it is small, it has this function, and leave there the music list that is playing while we work, or a video, movie or series that we are watching, is very interesting.
Currently, we can get it in a project of Kickstarterwhere from only 95 euros we will get him, depending on the version we want, and with an estimate of receiving it in that comes, so we talk about something really economic, and that for many can be worth it. It has the following characteristics:
- 5 -inch screen : 1280 × 720 IPS panel
- USB ports : 4 USB-A (10 Gbps), 2 USB-C (10 Gbps), 1 USB-C host
- Card readers : SD + MicroSD 4.0 (UHS-II, 312 MB/S)
- Audio : 3.5 mm headphones connector (compatible with 32 bits, 8–384 kHz)
- Video – HDMI entrance
- Slot Storage : SSD M.2 NVME slot, up to 8 TB (10 Gbps transfer speeds)
- Dimensions : 145 × 131 × 154 mm, weight 510 g
And there are two models:
- 10 Gbps model
- 80 Gbps model: updates to Displayport 2.1 (8K/60Hz) and Ultra High Speed SSD Transfer.
In summary, something curious that although it will not be the most functional of the world, it generates a very interesting design for our setup, as well as recalls the old Macs, something that every fan of Apple with a certain age will miss, and it will seem very nostalgic, so because of the price it currently has, it is not at all a bad purchase, and that I am not to enter these projects, but I have already done with one. And you? Leave us a comment with your opinion about it.
