Starting with a Mac mini M6.
Our first planned configuration pairs the M6 chip with 16 GB unified memory and a 256 GB SSD. M4 and M4 Pro configurations are exploratory options that are not yet purchased or ready for rental.
Daily and monthly rental terms are planned, with an introductory 24-hour free period proposed to begin only after verified access is delivered.
