Morning all,
Heres a poser particularly aimed at those who move through both

I have a medical camera just acquired which needs to run PC
software. My network is a Mac one.
I need, I think, a compact PC (definitely not a tower) which I can
bolt under a motorised table for portability. Wifi capability
desirable. Plenty of Ram but minimal need for graphic grunt as it
is a still camera. Needs a "3d" monitor - ie fast refresh LCD or a
CRT.
... or do I?
Would a Mac Mini suit? Certainly compact!!! - and can boot into and
run WinXP
Or is that the tail wagging the dog? What configurations are
available in the windoze world?
Thanks for any advice.
David
I'd go the Mac Mini. At least you can be safe in the knowledge that
if the software eventually comes out on the Mac, you can switch
without having to buy new hardware. Also gives you the option of
moving the machine elsewhere on the network once it passes its used
by date with the medical camera. Being whisper quiet is a big bonus!
