Re: Mac Mini - FrontRow?



I am considering doing the same thing. While most of my music
collection is
mp3, quite a lot of the recent stuff is DRM'd from iTunes.
I love FrontRow on my MacBook so saw the Mac Mini as a ideal media delivery
device for the music and ripped DVD's. The only reason I am hesitating is
the promise of the Apple iTV 'sometime in 2007'.

John.
