I'd still like a few more ol' fashion USB-A ports on there. I have so many things I need to plugin to USB-A ports still. My Mini only has 2 and it's just not enough.

I feel like now it is just a given that I’ll hook up a hub to everything.

Even my thunderbolt 4 hub / dock … has another hubs for “lesser” devices.

disappointed to see them still selling these with 8gb RAM. More than a dozen chrome tabs and a few discord servers has been enough to crash/significantly slow down my m1 mac mini

edit: the ad says up to 24/32GB of ram, but seems like 8gb/16gb models are the only ones available for pre-order at the moment.

Is the RAM and SSD upgradeable? The baseline model is 8GB / 256GB, and very reasonably priced at $600.

Upgrading to 24GB is a whopping $400, and to 1TB is another $400. The $700 baseline seems reasonable. $1500 for a minimum usable machine seems more than a little excessive.
