@atpfm I really liked the M4 Pro option on the Mini, yeah maybe it's not the great value of the plain M4 but I saved $600 over the Studio and the Pro (with TB5 ports and more GPU cores) feels like the sweet spot for me.
Of course, if the Mini only had non-pro, I'd probably step up to the lowest tier Studio - which I guess is what Apple would prefer I do anyway. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
