Thanks Joe, great post, yeah, I may to to the appointment (buy may not); in small hope they could do an under $150 easy fix, if not, then probably get Mac mini M1.

But you agree that 1TB way to go? Ah.. see don't offer a 1tb oddly... strange in Mac Mini maxes at 512... ( Imagine if few years on you could put one in there.) .. $900 plus $400 tops for 27" LG monitor and camera... $1300 tops.

Or... 24", have to see that in store if get used to 24" research on 24" could get ...$2100 to have 1TB in there.... $800 more get nice Apple look, but smaller screen, and bigger internal from get but not great value.. I've never done mac mini but, probably go that route....

Ah.. can get 1tb at least BH, not sure see that on apple site (prefer getting from apple, and get 16 ram)..
