Tom's Mac mini setup

XP on P4 3.2 Ghz HT and a Mac Mini 1.66 Core Duo. Using Synergy to utilize a single keyboard and mouse. Dual Samsung 213t's. Love the site, keep up the good work.

whats the Intel Mini like?
|

Nice choice of XP skins, though you should check out Black and White, its a brushed aluminum style set that fits the similar mac theme beautifully.

The mac mini is great, front row is a great app. I have one question though, is there a way to get the sound from the mac to go through my speakers that are connected to my PC by way of the synergy app.? That would be really usefull. Thanks, Tom.

You could use an audio streaming server and client, but that would be messy....

I WILL PERSONALLY DESTROY THE woRLD IF BILL GATEES AND MICROSLOP EVEN GET NEAR OUR FRIENDS ON THE INFINITE LOOP!!! p.s. tom, go to http://osx.portraitofakite.com/pages/tutorials/guide/ to make your windows look and feel like a mac. in addition, i also recommend objectbar and XPlorer, which emulate the mac toolbar and finder. google desktopsearch with iFind 1.1 makes a great spotlight clone!

Will: You freakin rock, dood! Flyakite is great, when I "have" to run winbloze (Freakin work). Just loaded it on my 2Gb Dell Laptop and runs great, not to mention a superior desktop, now!

Nice deal w/ synergy, I'm using a usb switch, but I might have to try that out instead. Looks good. For the music, you might just be better off using a headphone jack splitter to hook the mac and pc both into the same line to the speakers, that's what i do, it means you have to boost the speakers a bit more, but it works ok. good luck

I have XP but with OS-X look, original windows look sox
|

1600 x 1200, sounds like NTSC ratio to me! Be a man go with 1900 x 1200

Did the mouse/keyboard worked with the mini out of the box  or did you have to configure something first with wired mouse/keyboard connected to the mini
