Gadget Review Daily Deals: Mac Mini price drop, Toshiba Laptop $280, Panasonic Lumix interchangeable lens camera $340

If you keep hearing about how reliable and easy to use Apple computers are but don’t want to pay over a grand OR buy something that’s not the latest technology, we’ve got your magic pill. The Apple Mac Mini dropped to $549 today – the lowest price it’s been by $29. This model runs an Ivy Bridge Core i5 processor, 4GB RAM, a 500GB HDD, and a 1-year warranty. Thunderbolt, Firewire, 4 USB 3.0, an HDMI port, and an IR receiver built-in mean you could use this as a solid home theater PC with the addition of an optical drive (or not).

If you’re in the market for a cheap basic laptop this 15.6-inch Toshiba C855 from NewEgg will do just fine. It’s the lowest price we’ve seen on a C855-S5346 by $70 and is actually $72 less than the next best price online of $352. You also get free shipping and no tax in most states.

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF5K interchangeable lens camera dropped to $340 – the lowest price we’ve ever seen by $60. This camera’s ideal for someone looking for the flexibility of interchangeable lenses coupled with light weight and a lighter price tag than comparable DSLRs.
