While I could never find official confirmation, it seemed like many Mac
Minis would bog down endlessly scanning for what kind of monitor there
was when there wasn't one plugged in. Having a monitor connected but
turned off was sufficient to work around the bug and, of course, this
bug does not exist on Macs with screens built in. It seemed to be some
weird hardware thing as no amount of patching and fiddling seemed to
resolve the issue. For me I got a cheap VGA to NTSC converted connected
which made my mini happy and let me hook it to a TV to be the family
media center. Hopefully the newer Minis no longer have this flaw but I
haven't heard definitively one way or the other.

Hi all,
I just wanted to add one more thing to the debate about Mac Minis
needing monitors. Mine, a mid-2011, still does. That is even after a
complete wipe and re-install, with the latest version of 10.9.
