I'm trying to figure out a smart, space-saving way of placing or mounting a Mac Mini (late 2012) on a (small) desk which also accomodates a PC keyboard and mouse (for another PC) in addition to the Mac Mini's own keyboard and mouse. Doing away with the Mac Mini would at least leave more space for the two sets of keyboards and mice.
So which options do I have? I think I've heard of VESA mounts which would allow me to place the Mac underneath the desk or behind one of the two displays (both mounted on a mounting arm, which means neither display takes up any desktop space). How about ventilation while placed underneath the desk (hot air moves upwards, so I'm thinking it's not getting anywhere.... but I suppose the Mac Mini fan helps..).
I'm also open for other suggestions on the matter of placing the Mac Mini, or ways of arranging the two keyboards/mice in addition to the Mac Mini and a small external Time Machine backup drive.
