Why You Should Buy a Mac mini Instead of an iMac

January 12, 2023

Since its inception in 1984, the Mac computer line has been an all-in-one affair. Macs made it easy for people to get into computing because they didn’t need to bring all their own components like a display, keyboard, mouse, and more. And the iMac continues that tradition to this day. However, Macs have become far more than just an all-in-one computer. I recently switched my desktop computer from an iMac to a Mac mini, Apple’s computer that’s not an all-in-one model. And it’s the best Apple computer I’ve ever owned. I explain why in today’s top story.

Other Highlights:

• Everything we know so far about the Samsung Galaxy S23.
• Ryan Reynolds uses AI to write his jokes.
• Some Jitterbug phones sold by Best Buy stop working.
• … and more!
