The strangest thing happened. I was in a photography livestream when the subject of the new Mac mini M4 came up and I said I thought it was pretty cheap, starting at $599 / £599. Someone in the chat didn’t like that and insisted it was just a jumped-up Apple TV and not cheap at all.
So let’s see if we can get this straight. The Mac mini might look a little like the Apple TV on the outside, but inside it’s completely different. The Apple TV is a simplified streaming device running Apple’s tvOS. The Mac mini is a fully-fledged desktop computer running the same hardware and operating system as Apple’s other computers, but in a radical, miniaturized design.
