Interesting you took it that way as its vastely different from a Mac
mini, try configuring a Mac Mini yourself and see how you get on <smile>.
The only similarity between the Nuc and the Mac Mini are the size of the
machines really, even the entry level Mac Mini is more expensive than a
Nuc though having said that the Mac Mini is pretty much read to go out
of the box, all the user need do is set up keyboard and display.
There are other computers similar in size to the Nuc and Mac Mini and
perhaps the most famous of these is the Samsung Chromebox.
I bought one about a year ago and I won't go on about it here because it
really doesn't have any audio qualities worth speaking of apart from a
headphones socket and it can play audio but its not the power house like
a Nuc or a Mac Mini, the Chromebox relies totally on Google to run.

I was simply going by the fact that this is made to look like a Mac Mini and
that is all. Smiles.

These machines are no pretenders, they’re proper Intel machines, much the same
as your Desktop or Notebook but one hell of a lot smaller, perfect as the
audio/video hub in your lounge room because of their size, put them literally
anywhere, can you imagine a desktop machine taking up room in your family
living area which could otherwise be occupied by seating, coffee tables or
whatever other comforts and furniture a lounge room has these days?

Very well said. Why buy a pretender.

Seems too expensive for something you have to add lots of things to,
like your ram and storage. Buy the Mini and be done with it.
