Thanks this is all sounding very promising. And with he new Intel processor and built in wifi and Gigabit Ethernet, the Mac Mini is sounding more and more it should come home and accompany my new plasma. One inevitable thing to ask, with the new Front Row software and remote, it can at least have a part time job of doing what the Slim is doing? -- agentsmith ------------------------------------------------------------------------ agentsmith's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1838 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21777 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
