Well it would look better, because it matches your TV stand.
I like clear plastic things, just not against metal or wood.

Correct English would be 'The Mac mini is one of the smallest desktop computers ever made…' |
Fixed on both pages, thanks. |

I assume they just connect with bolts or screws.[...] The problem is, I don't think I will be able to see my Mac mini and LaCie mini through the glass doors without placing them on top of two fairly hot receivers. I was thinking about hanging them on the bottom of the inside shelf. I could either stack them or put one on each side. It really depends on how low they would hang. I'll have a better idea once it's put together. |
Each mount is 2-3/8" tall. If you stack your Mac mini and LaCie mini, with the LaCie mini on top, that means your Mac mini would be 2-3/8" down from the bottom of inside shelf.
Hope this helps,
Yvan. |

I would say, what took you guys so long, until I saw what you ask for them. If these things are exported to Europe I guess they will be hitting the $ 45 at least and not the simple conversion of $ to € = 27.50. If you consider that a simple empty miniStack V2 is priced at $ 106.30 in this country versus around $ 75.00 in the States... Oh well, better look for European alternatives...

The shipping might cost more, but the price would still be the same: 35$CAD for the CinnaMount mini or 40$CAD for the CinnaMount mini + Mac mini power supply mount.
Prices in europe are usually announced with taxes included. Not so in Canada or the USA, there's just too many different percentages depending on the province/state.
Someone in Quebec, for example, would pay 6%GST and then 7.5%PST (on top of that GST), making the bundle kit 45.58$CAD including taxes (the price being 40$CAD + applicable taxes for Canadian buyers).
According to the unit conversion widget, 40$CAD is roughly 28.10€. |

Thanks for the information. I'll probably be ordering them in another week or two. The very top board on the TV stand was damaged in the box, so Tech Craft needs to send me a replacement. I also need to finish pulling up the carpet and hiding the wires for the rear speakers. I'm almost done!

Autobahn actually doesn't interest me. Mostly because I don't have a nice enough car to really enjoy the speeds.
OTOH I have a vacation whenever I want 
Plus I'll hawking PS3's on eBay in a couple of weeks.
