King Hotpants posted:The narrator in that LinuxMCE video has possibly the most "Linux" voice on earth. The subtle disdain for Microsoft, the air of superiority, the nasally overtones. It's all there. I couldn't stand listening to more than a few minutes worth for the same reason. "Hrrmmm! I wonder what .... Micro$ofts'ssss... designers figured was more important? Users media.... or the Windows PC interface?!" Anyway, I am about to choose a completely different option... using a Mac Mini as a HTPC. I'm going to start with just the base Mini and a Miglia TVMini HD. As far as the front end goes, I'll probably just use Front Row to start and EyeTV for PVR-type-stuff. Does anyone here have experience using a Mac as a HTPC? Are there better apps for the front end than Front Row? Are there any major downsides to using a Mac / Mac Mini as a HTPC? Obviously I know I won't be playing HD-DVD or Blue-ray from it, but that's not an issue for me.
