Mac-mini meeting TiVo?
TiVo shares jump on Apple speculation | CNET News.com
Now that would be cool! I just got a Mac mini with the sole purpose of it becoming the media hub in our family room. Moved all iTunes and iPhoto content to it and started to research the possibilities of recording TV with it too, making my TiVo box obsolete. Hook it all up to an Optoma H30 HDTV projector or something similar or better, and that would make for a very sweet next generation home "theater" indeed...
Oh yeah, for those looking for a digital (optical) audio-out solution for the Mac mini, consider the Edirol UA20. That's what I'm using because I happened to have one already for its MIDI capabilities. It has an optical out and it goes straight into our Yamaha home theater setup and it works great.
