you can get almost 2 minimills for the price of a reasonably equipped office mill. plus the ISO 20 tooling is very expensive and limited availability compared to CAT40. Also minimill will run on 220 single phase.
the office mill would only be for a place that was very space limited, or needed to go thru a regular sized entry door, or needed to be portable.
also the high speed spindle is nice but not worth the $$$$ in my opinion.
I love my 4 axis mini except for the ethernet still doesn't work, otherwise it's great.
