My very first thought when I learned of the new mini-Mac was that this would be the perfect front-end for a home video setup. I just finished making a MythTV machine (a Linux Tivo clone with open source software) and MythTV allows other machines on the network to share video. There is a Mac OS X Myth font end, and this would be a perfect little box to use it. The problem I have is that $500 is a little steep to turn it into just a Myth slave. | The next meeting of the Louisville Computer Society will | be January 25.
