Ah, the 2012 mini is pretty good, its just, well, deceptive. Its so small and lovely, but the fact that it needs a monitor just makes me think: "Now Apple, why not just make a big computer tower like HP and all that, why make it small?" Those are my thoughts, and if my techie friend at school can spare a monitor I'll be OK, but if not, well I don't know what I'd do. I suppose I could live with using the mini without a monitor, I'd just have to use that FN key a lot. I also am not sure I'll even be able to take my mini to school, it was $600, so its likely my mom would just say I might lose it or something. Ah well, I still have my iPod touch.
