Hi all, I was using a ntsc adaptor. Now I connected it to our tv via HDMI and find the Mac mini mid 2010 very slow. I tried plugging in the adaptor at the same time but it was messing up the resolution for the HDMI. Will still see if I by any chance have a problem with some app. When I get to unplugging it from tv and using it with old ntsc I will let you know if it goes faster. BTW I use Mountain-lion. Best,
