Don’t get more than 8GB of Ram in your MAC Mini, as Apple (As usual) rip you off on Ram prices, (Like they do on everything else) which as the Ram is upgradable in the Mini, it is much cheaper to upgrade it yourself. (I would however recommend the i7 CPU & at least 512GB of storage)

It may also be worth waiting until next year, as the new MAC Pro (With proper upgradability) should be out next year.

If you want to save some money, you can build a Windows Desktop with the MAC Mini spec above (i7, 32GB Ram & 512GB Storage) for a less than £1000 (And everything is upgradable) compared to the £1500 of the MAC Mini.

If you are thinking of going for an iPad Pro, also look at the Microsoft Surface (The peripherals are also way superior and cheaper than the Apple equivalents) or a 2 in 1 Laptop.

One thing is certain; there is something out there for everybody.
