Last bought a Mac in 2009 (MBP) which I upped the spec on when buying and still using it now but it’s on its last legs
Now have a separate monitor and want to buy a mini with decent specs again so it’ll last

They track the average time between releases/refreshes, and where each product is on that cycle.
the OS is going to chase most of the 8GB available for sure
Apple being Apple, they restricted the HDMI 2.1 port to only the M2 Pro Minis.
Legal scams are the best, especially when people keep playing the game and paying the prices.

is this easily upgradable?
We're using a 12" MacBook connected to a display with keyboard and mouse as our primary office machine. It's Google Docs, Sheets, emails and web browsing.
So far I have not experience ANY memory related issues. This thing is blazing fast. I use it for work too, so I have lots of stuff open at once, often several browser sessions with 10+ tabs open on each, office applications, Spotify playing, etc
I also make music with Logic Pro, often using a few plugins, and again I haven't experienced even a hiccup.
I'm sure there will be a threshold point where stuff starts to slow, but I'm yet to see it so far, and I wouldn't consider myself a light user.
You should be able to use something else much cheaper if it is personal use only. (edited)
Thanks

You’ve probably got a spare already. (edited)
An M chipped Apple device is like a BMW M Car
insanely good engine, surrounded by unbelievable trash, premium badge that a cult like fanbase drool over
Dealbreaker for me.....
