I just got a headless device so that in the event I get a Mac Mini then I won't 
have the problem with no screen. You might want to join the Macvisionary List 
where we discuss Macs ETC.

HDMI is one option, but you can also get a Mini Display Port adapter for DVI or 
VGA if that's what your monitor has. This adapter plugs into the Thunderbolt 
port.

But if you already have a PC, you can use the keyboard, speakers, monitor, 
and I believe the mouse from your old PC.

They are the least expensive option, that is until you have to buy a 
monitor, keyboard, and if you prefer track pad.  Although any macmini bought 
after 2012 and beyond, you don’t have to connect a monitor.

 One thing I forgot to say is that the Mini is the least expensive Mac you 
can find, at least new. Minis start at $600, whereas the cheapest Macbook 
starts at $900, and iMacs are $1099, I think. That said, if it's your 
primary computer, I can't recommend a Macbook highly enough. They are so 
small and light that they're easy to take anywhere, and nothing beats having 
your entire computer with you when you need it.

   Alex said everything I would have said. The USB drives do work well with 
the mini, if one needs such. I've used one a time or two. I rarely have a 
need for a drive anymore, however.

     I'm not Christine, but I have a Mini.

     1. Yes, all Macs have VoiceOer built in, so long as they have OS 10.4 
or later. In other words, any Mac you buy nowadays, and back to 2005 I 
believe, will have it.
     2. No, not anymore. They used to have disk drives, but have not for a 
few years now, just like the Macbook and iMac lines. Disk drives are going 
away, and I find that I only rarely miss having one, not even often enough 
to make me pick up a USB disk drive.
     3. No, the Mini is a small computer tower. It has no screen, keyboard, 
or mouse, though it does have a small internal speaker. It is meant to be 
connected to all necessary peripherals. If you're after an all-in-one 
solution, a Macbook might be better for you. The iMac is also an option; it 
has the tower and screen in one unit (though it is not a touch screen). No 
Mac currently offers a touch screen, only iOS devices do that. For the blind 
especially, though, a trackpad is just as good, since it lets you feel 
around the screen and perform familiar VO gestures to navigate and perform 
other actions.

       Hi Kristeen

       I'm thinking about buying a Mac Mini. I have a couple of questions 
for you. I have always been a Windows user, so pardon my ignorance.

       1. Does the Mac Mini have voiceover?
       2. Does it have a CD drive?
       3. Is the Mac Mini a touch screen?

       Thanks for answering my questions.

       Donna
