Apple Pro Mouse is almost a quarter century old! 24” Cinema HD Display is about 15 years old, too. 😎

I never owned one, but your mouse is familiar, but since it's older than the Apple Store, I must've seen it on display at CompUSA. 😉
Answering my own question: unplugged the Mac mini monitor and it is still there on my iMac via Screen Sharing! So, now I have my new Mac mini and my iMac in two Full Screens on the iMac. The reason why I like this is that my 'regular' less demanding office work is in the iMac full screen and my Xcode simulations run on the Mac mini full screen. I know most people would rather have the dual (or triplet) screens with the Mac mini (because of the larger applications and their menus) ... but I just like the simple set-up with the iMac and headless Mac mini.
Here's my latest setup with my new Mini.

This is my combined iMac + Mac mini set-up. I am using Screen Sharing from the iMac to the Mac mini. I use the iMac for my regular iWorks applications, Mail, Messages, etc ... office work, and then slide to the Full Screen for my Mac mini 'screen' with my Xcode simulations.

As tempting as the new Mac mini is, my M2 Pro Mac mini still fits nicely hidden out of the way behind my desk
And the mini is like, "no worries, I'm good where I am, thanks."
Now all you need is the same desk and lamp and white chair. 😀
Would you believe Amazon Basics! They are the best reviewed PC speakers on Amazon and I am impressed with them.

Here's my M4 Mini setup. I used to have speakers but I decided to pack them up and not use them because the internal speaker on my Mini is more than enough for my needs. Sometimes simpler is better.
