About This Mac

Introduced in 2011 was a Mac mini with no optical drive, in line with Apple’s strategy to move away from the outdated technology. Also new to the 2011 was a high speed thunderbolt port which also supported display ports for displays from the previous models and an improved Bluetooth 4.o. It was also the first Mini to ploy the i Series from intel, a huge upgrade from the Core 2 Duo predecessor.
