Hi Jim, You might want to wait to hear from John Panarese, or some other Mac Mini owner who uses the adapter combination in place of a monitor, but my understanding is that as long as the VGA to NTSC converter from Sewell Direct is plugged into the VGA end of the Apple mini display port VGA adapter, this should work as though you had connected your Mini to a monitor that is turned off. I think the Mini tries to detect whether a monitor is present when it starts up, so you might need to have this adapter combination in place when you start up your Mini.
