My current computer is a very old (10 years?) Mini that's way too slow to be useful.

Here's a new (late 2015) imac at B&H for about the same money:

21.5" LED-Backlit IPS Display
1920 x 1080 Screen Resolution
1.6 GHz Intel Core i5 Dual-Core
8GB of 1867 MHz LPDDR3 Onboard RAM
$1,099

+ 166 for 16 GB RAM

It's best to avoid the"MacBook Air guts inside a desktop" models.

Those 1.x GHz processors are designed for thin laptops, where low power consumption, not performance, is the overriding priority.

In the desktop models, they only serve to fulfill the need for a lower price point.
