THE BEST PLACE FOR A MAC MINI IS SOMEWHERE YOU CAN'T SEE IT.
A bracket clamps to the VESA mount behind the monitor. The Mini drops in face-down and disappears.
Then the clever part. A hub runs along the top edge of the screen, so everything you plug in sits at eye level instead of somewhere behind the panel.
What that gets you:
▸ 3 USB-A at 10Gbps, USB-C and an SD reader, all facing up.
▸ Nothing on the desk but a keyboard and a mouse.
▸ Vents stay clear, so the Mini runs cooler than lying flat.
Card comes out of the camera and goes straight in above the screen. No crawling behind anything, no dongle hanging off the side.
Every other mount hides the machine and buries everything else with it.
