Another alternative is any HD TV with an HDMI port. I don't have mine
hooked up, but if I need to, I can plug my mac mini into the HDMI port on
the family room HDTV and someone can help me with something I may need eyes
for.

Hi there,
I struggled with this when I got my mac mini. What I ended up doing was
that I had a monitor that had come with my PC computer many years ago. I
had hardly used it.
So when I went to the apple store to get my mac, I took the cable from the
back of the monitor and showed it to them.
They said they had an adapter so I could use that monitor if I need to.
so I bought the adaptor.
When I brought the mac home, I plugged it in to make sure it works and every
now and then I need someone to look at the mac screen for me so I use it but
only rarely.
It is a cheaper option if you have an old monitor hanging around.
I also already had speakers so did not need to buy them.
This made buying my mac much cheaper.

Good morning folks,
I want to throw this in to the discussion as to whether or not to get a
monitor or use one. Even if you think the monitor is optional because you
will not be using it, there could be times when you might require sighted
assistance and then the monitor becomes essential. Of course this has more
to do with buying a mac mini or imac because on the mack books there is
already a monitor.
