Absolute drivel, and likely ill-intentioned misinformation. Even the 8GB model is more than enough for lots more than "web browsing and basic office work"; this 16GB is good enough for the large majority of power users.

Great deal! For those of us who prefer to "bring their own storage," the 16GB/256GB would have been better (assuming the price would have been proportionately lower), but at this price it's fine and allows you to use it right away w/o needing to worry about an external storage solution right away.
I'm typing this on my $500 base M2 purchased from Costco last month (currently hooked up to two 27" 1440 displays). I'm a looong time PC user (the last time I touched a mac was in the 90's). The learning curve to MacOS was a bit rough, but I'm slowly getting used to the new OS. It's hard to believe so much power is packed into such a small (and cheap) package.

This thing will stream 4k (2x speed) YouTube without a single stutter. It is silent, despite the active cooling.

I'm almost surely going to pick up a second unit during Costco's sale. I'll probably have one unit permanently tied to my TV (for YouTube, Steam, CloneHero, Chrome, etc). And another in my office. For my office computer, I'm tempted to upgrade to the "Pro" model, but I'm likely deluding myself that I need the extra power relative to the $500 base.

Thanks for sharing! AFAIK, so far this is the lowest price for M2 Pro minis, beating Adorama's $1199 previous best deal.

For anything more than web browsing and basic office work it needs to be 32gb and 1TB SSD.

This guy is using the base model MBA to edit video in final cut just fine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53xBuFfz6H8 it's still a beast. Btw I have the M2 Pro Mini + M1 pro it is a little better but not that much better.

Should I pull the trigger on this or go for the base model? Looking for dual 32" monitors set up. Mostly will be playing LoL on one and watching youtube on the other. Not sure if base model will be good enough.

Is there a good place to compare and contrast the Mini VS Studio for people moving away from the intel Mac Pro with several 3.5" disks of data that will still be needed to hang off and accessible in a clean way, 3 monitors desired, and a few required apps for CAD like F360 that requires strong single core performance.

No, this has 512GB. So it'll have 2x256GB NAND chips.
