What would you all consider the "sweet spot" in terms of price vs performance for a 2018 mini intended for home use?
-3 user accounts
-about 350 to 400 GB of combined system, users and data, though much of the data (music and movies, about 250 to 300GB) can be offloaded to an external drive)
-apps generally open include Messages, Tweetbot, Mail, Calendar, iTunes and Safari with maybe 7 to 8 pinned tabs and then anywhere from 5 to 10 additional tabs open at any time
-uses include what the above apps do as well as basic Office, rare video transcoding and other sundry uses
No heavy duty stuff like video editing, photo editing, etc.
Just trying to figure out if I can get by with a base model or a customized base model or need to bump up to the $1099 model with or without customization.
Thanks.
