256GB Mac Mini discontinued

[Dolby]

Weird thread this lol. Corporate cult? Bloody hell it’s just an ecosystem.

It is weird.

No one was speaking to you, but you detected something about Apple and felt the need to jump in and add no value *shrug*

 

[Smiggles]

All hail the corporate overlords.

"Weird" people aside still currently showing.

Mac mini | Apple M4

The far mightier, way tinier Mac mini is 5 by 5 inches of pure power. Built for Apple Intelligence. Redesigned around Apple silicon to unleash the full speed and capabilities of the spectacular M4 chip. With ports at your convenience, on the front and back.

You’re posting in a thread about an Apple product. Imagine someone chiming in. It’s a mystery?!

Existing stock. It’ll be there for a while longer. Same happened with the 8GB Macs after Apple changed the base to 16GB.

Did you mean to quote me?

Your reply makes no sense at all

“… adjusting to inventory shortages driven by AI demand and the tight supply of processors.”

I thought yesterday there was no issue with Apple and RAM?

This is about storage…not RAM.

I’m almost sure that AI shortage inventory is both storage and RAM?

 

[Dolby]

“As of early 2026, Apple is facing significant supply chain constraints, with severe DRAM and SSD shortages causing 4-5 month shipping delays for high-end Mac mini and Mac Studio configurations”

“Component Shortages: The personal computing sector, including Apple, is experiencing a widespread shortage of NAND (SSD) and DRAM chips, driving up component costs”

Apple drops an SKU

[FiestaST]

What's more NB to me actually is the "debate" of calling it S-K-U vs Skew.

I'm in favour of the former (always).

Dolby:

Are you saying they didn’t drop because of component challenges? You have to start giving your own opinions because it’s becoming tough to follow you.

That’s the biggest thing since you signed up for the cult. Your own opinions have been lost

Hi @mods please move to Apple section.

Or not, otherwise please make it so you and Smiggles can't post anywhere but there. Would be oh so peaceful.

Funny thing. The other day I looked at some Android screenshot thread. I did not comment and also did not see any Apple people comment on it.
Yet out of nowhere you and your inferiority complex decided to have a go at Apple on an Android thread.

Go look at the iphone equivalent, well all 4 posts on it

Hi @mods please move to Apple section.

I agree.

You guy need to have safe space where no one can say anything that could be perceived as bad

 

[Smiggles]

All hail the cult. Guess my mom is in the cult as well lol
