So i picked up a 2012 Mac Mini a few weeks ago at a very good price, was going to wait for the refresh but i felt i needed to take advantage of this price.
I am not sure if i should spring for more ram or not, right now the computer is connected to a thunderbolt display but that is a short term solution, going to be picking up a Mac Pro if the price is not too crazy and i feel its worth it or wait for the retina display iMac to get released.
Eventually the computer is just going to be a headless server for my media for the different Apple TV's and other devices that can access it, i also use it to do quite a bit of handbraking, 2-3 times a week sometimes more.
I don't want to spent more then 200$ more on this thing so it's either 8GB and AppleCare or 16GB
What would you do?
