I have had two Mac Minis— one from 2012, and one from 2024–and neither of them
have chargers because they are not battery powered. They are not MagSafe. They
all use a standard two prong cheater cord to connect to wall power.

You should get into startup and recovery options.

Compared to your current Mac with an Intel i7 processor, both M4 or M4 Pro will

Hi,
I also have a 2018 year mac mini and I love it.
