>With these 2 caveats I'm surprised you still think it's fine!

I have a Macbook Pro for work. It is functionally a desktop that I can take home with me every day. If Apple shipped a Mac Mini with a built in 10 minute battery that auto hibernated the machine when i unplugged it, it would make sense for work to provision me one of those and save $800~

If this was my personal laptop, it'd be untenable though.

Check out the DeskMini series. It doesn’t have the battery thing you mentioned but it’s what I wish the Mac Mini was. You can fit 4 hard drives in it! 2 PCIe and 2 2.5”.

Well, I specifically need a computer that is easy to yank away from my desk and take home, and vice versa.
