I am an iOS developer by profession, but do not own a Mac at home, yet. I am looking forward to buying a Mac Mini (salary - ) with a decent setup including keyboard, mouse, display, and speakers(optional).
Display : The Mac Mini is equipped with Intel HD Graphics 4000 (1920 x 1080), so I would like a (crisp) display that does justice to OSX, something in between of 17-21 inches.
Mouse : Even though I am in love with the Air mouse in my workplace, I would not mind using a regular compatible mouse that does not compromise on performance. Gaming is not a priority. Neither is whether it's wired/wireless. But I have BIG hands, and I have become quite accustomed to the size of the Air mouse. Something similar in terms of ergonomics and dimensions would be acceptable.
Keyboard : First and foremost, I need a full keyboard. I simply hate the Island keyboard on my iMac in the office. I don't have anything against the Apple wired keyboard, in fact it feels good, but any worthy alternative would be acceptable.
Speakers (Optional): Now, the Mac Mini is not a Remix station, but a set of decent speakers to go with it would not be a bad idea, since I listen to music the entire time I'm coding. I have my set of earphones, but keeping the ears plugged continuously for long stretches becomes uncomfortable.
Et Cetera : Any other peripherals/accessories Mac owners use which make their life easier are also welcome.
P.S. : As mentioned above, my finances are a constraint, and affordability is the major factor. I have around 70k to spend, and would like to milk my machine for every Paisa I spend on it.
Any other suggestions regarding the configuration would be appreciated too.
Thank you.
