However, the 2011 upgrade addressed many of these previous complaints. It also had less storage and memory than comparable desktops. Previously, with the choice of components on the older models, the machine was considered somewhat slower than standard desktop computers. Unlike normal desktop computers, which use standard-sized components such as 3.5-inch hard drives, Apple uses lower power laptop components in the Mac Mini to fit all the necessary components into the small case and to prevent overheating, common in such compact spaces. Until the 2011 release, the Mac Mini had much less processing power than the other computers of the Macintosh lineup. The Mac Mini is an entry-level computer intended for budget-minded customers. On January 10, 2005, the Mac Mini was announced alongside the iPod shuffle at the Macworld Conference & Expo and was described by Apple CEO Steve Jobs at the time as the "most affordable Mac ever". Rumors predicted that the "headless iMac" would be extremely small, include no display, and would be positioned as Apple's entry-level desktop computer.

The primary intended market for the Mac Mini was users switching from a traditional Windows PC to a Mac who might already own a compatible display, keyboard and mouse, though these could be easily purchased if needed. The Mac Mini was the first consumer level Macintosh desktop to ship without a display, keyboard, or mouse since Apple's success following the release of the iMac, with Apple marketing it as BYODKM (Bring Your Own Display, Keyboard, and Mouse) to reinforce this fact. The Mac Mini is one of three desktop computers in the current Macintosh lineup, the other two being the iMac and Mac Pro, although it generally uses components usually featured in laptops, hence its small size. Models pre-2010 used an external power supply and were narrower but taller at 2.0×6.5×6.5 inches (51×170×170 mm).

Before the mid-2011 revision, all models, except the mid-2010 server model, came with an internal optical disc drive. Like earlier mini-ITX PC designs, it is 7.7 inches (196 mm) square and 1.4 inches (36 mm) tall. The Mac Mini (marketed as Mac mini) is a small form factor desktop computer manufactured by Apple Inc.
