I'm pretty sure my Mini is a later 2014 version; I got it from the Apple store

Yeah then it probably is. So is mine which I got *new* [sob] from the Apple 
Store in July of 2018.

yes, mere months before the exponentially improved and more capable models were 
released. For grins and giggles I looked up what Apple would give me as a 
trade-in for it: $143.

Now THAT’S Depreciation!  $750 to $143 in three months.

I didn’t really have a choice though, my old one had died, so I was kinda 
stuck. Had I *known* the new ones were coming I’d have figured out how to hold 
off and wait, but you know Apple, they love them some surprises :-/

I felt like the Library here at the U,  back in the day, when they bought a 
room-full of Mac IIVi’s to refresh their computer labs…
