nd is it any good,any advice,Thank you.

If you want a particularly small computer and you want a Mac then yes I'd buy one.

Mojisola

It depends what you want to do with it. I have a Mac Mini and it does everything I want but I'm not into gaming.

If you're after a gaming rig, then no, it'll be an awful computer. If you want something for general use, it's an excellent computer. It's really small, virtually silent and very energy efficient.

It's also a pretty inexpensive way of getting a Mac.

OP - Yes, we techs know what it is, no need for the long post. If not we find out. Bandwidth hogging..
