Welcome to the club
What unit is that? Is it a desktop that is customized for the TV/entertainment all-in-one? Let us know what's in it (at least for those of us not that familiar with the Mac line). It looks bigger than a Mac Mini...
It's a plain Mac Mini...I got it for the Frontrow software, and something new to tinker with.
Going to put it on a 40" flat panel and hook up a wireless keyboard/mouse to it.
Those things are gorgeous; it's almost like they are small pieces of furniture, rather than electronics equipment.
Wow! I thought Mac Minis were smaller, more cube-like (or am I thinking of another small formfactor PC?). Cool! Good luck setting it up, it looks like it will be fun! One day I have to convince my wife that we need one for the TV... get rid of BrightHouse's DVR.
mini is the size of about 4 cds high and wide
I've installed Windows on my Mac...
XP, I don't see anything amazing about Vista...it's reminding me of the Windows ME days.
It's too much of a hand holding OS.
BTW...any good sites for free software/tips?
I was just thinking the same thing about Me.
You got a good Newsgroup server?
Haven't messed with news groups in years...most all of them now are paid services.
www.newshosting.com costs me $155 per year and is worth every penny. Unlimited downloads and I believe 8 feeds (I only use 3). FANTASTIC retention too! Had 'em for about 4 years now, not a single regret. :)
ooh im using a mac too.. i feel dirty :haha:
dirty ?? but most macs are a lovely soapy white or metallic like sterilised stainless steel.....
:D
