I don&#x27;t disagree with you on the Mac Mini, and I haven&#x27;t said that all Macs are serviceable. But given that Apple is a <i>very</i> popular brand, you can look up the repair guides for the Mini on iFixit before you purchase it, and then look for alternatives (maybe just a different model year). Good luck doing that with a random Chinese NUC off eBay - it&#x27;s surprises all the way down. =&#x2F;
