That’s an M2 Mac mini. You can get it at a good price with 16 gigs of RAM. That will be plenty although more is available. Any bluetooth keyboard eill connect and any monitor will as well. Although for simplicity sake I’d go with the basic Apple wireless keyboard. it’s not expensive and quite good. I use the same Mac for photo editing with the latest PhotoShop version including new AI functions. It kicks butt. I have one 37-inch Drll monitor and one 31-inch LG monitor connected using the Mac video port. I have 20 external dtived connected. Simple, Paul
