Thanks for all the ideas everyone. I keep seeing rumors that new mac minis are 
close. Nov 10?

In about a year my wife and I are moving to mexico for a bit. Not sure if have 
a PC and a Mac will be very portable. Also, I checked out Pystar machines. I 
like what they want to do. But psystar has no iLife support and I am not sure 
how their customer service is regardless of the price.

I think the mini will work fine.

Thanks again.

Another way to proceed is to buy a cheap Windows box to run your 2
apps, you can connect it to your huge LCD. You can connect a mini or
any Mac to the same LCD. My LCD has a simple switch that can switch
between analog and dvi inputs, the latter can be used respectively for
2 computers.
