So have you removed dropbox in the Users & Groups Login Items list? That would at least solve the immediate problem. The Mini to VGA to NTSC converter still seems to do the job until Apple gets a fix in.

So assuming I have to get a way to fake out my Mac Mini in thinking

box until I can find the necessary hardware? I find it amazing that
that app alone would cause the Finder to go into the mud and get
"busy" all the time no matter what folder I try and go into.
Reminder: as soon as I kill or disable dropbox from running, it gets
all good again.

Any other ideas?

I just installed Dropbox this afternoon on my new mac mini.  I thought
it installed OK and it even synced up my files from the host but now I
constantly get "Finder busy" all the time whenever I open *ANY* window
in the finder! At this point, the Finder is completely useless while
the Dropbox app is running.  If I go into my login preferences and
remove Dropbox from the startup list and log back in, I can use the
finder like always.  As soon as I launch Dropbox from the
applications folder or allow it to run at login, Finder goes to hell
in a handbag!

Has anyone else experienced thins kind of thing?

Note, I am using a mac mini without a monitor connected.  I surely
hope this isn't also going to be a problem like the auto starting of
VO when no monitor is connected.

Hey, I really want to use Dropbox but this performance hit is a show
stopper for me.
