Apple's M4 Mac mini base model with 16GB RAM and 256GB storage is sold out on Apple's website, with no delivery or in-store pickup options. The shortage extends to other base model configurations, pushing buyers to eBay where prices are significantly higher, sometimes over $100 more than Apple's retail price. This surge in demand is driven by the Mac mini's popularity for running on-device AI models like OpenClaw and alternatives, combined with an industry-wide memory shortage and anticipation of a product refresh. Meanwhile, the Mac Studio is also seeing increased demand and sellouts, while other Apple products like MacBook Pro remain available, indicating the shortage is specific to the Mac mini.
