The M1 Mini is far better than Intel Mini on cost/power, power/watt, power/heat measures. Server farms are going to switch rapidly, one leading Mini server farm just announced a 600 unit starter order, and the CEO noted that Big Sur also made significant changes to licensing to make its use in server farms easier.

Of course i just found out M1 only supports 1 gigabit Ethernet, but I don’t think that changes the decision much.
