    I know it doesn’t have the efficiency of an m4 but…

    Here's a more detailed comparison:
    
    Intel Core Ultra 9 185H:
    Pros:
    
    Higher RAM speed (7467 MHz) and larger maximum memory (96 GB). 
    More CPU threads (22) and supports multithreading. 
    Supports more displays (4). 
    
    Cons:
    
    Higher power consumption compared to the M4. 
    Higher price point compared to the M4 Mac Mini. 
    
    Apple M4 (8-core CPU) in the M4 Mac Mini:
    Pros:
    Exceptional performance per watt (power efficiency). 
    Lower price point and better value for the performance. 
    Cons:
    Lower RAM speed (6400 MHz) and smaller maximum memory (24 GB) compared to the Ultra 9 185H. 
    Fewer CPU threads (8). 
    Supports fewer displays (2). 
    
    
    In summary: 
    If you prioritize raw power, multi-threaded performance, and memory capacity, the Ultra 9 185H is the better choice. 
    
    However, if you prioritize power efficiency, budget, and value for the money, the M4 Mac Mini is the more appealing option.

        Each to their own. Yes I am aware of what I posted. They (apple) make excellent hardware. I choose products that live on for years, not at the mercy of a closed environment. I want to do what I want with my hardware. We have different needs and I respect your choices.
