Mac Mini News Mac mini with iTrip Monday January 30, 2006 10:44 AM EST ZapWizard has posted a Flickr set of his Mac mini carputer. One of the things that really caught our eye was how he integrated a Griffin iTrip into his Mac mini for playing audio over his car stereo. "I choose to wire it to +5volts from the USB, as I couldn't find a reliable source of 3.3volts. A dummy headphone jack allows the iTrip to turn on. Later when I replace my headunit I can just jack into the headphone jack and get straight audio," writes ZapWizard. He also made a custom DVI to VGA adapter, so the Mac mini would fit into the center console. "The Mac Mini may be small, but with a DVI to VGA adapter, and a VGA connector onto that it can get pretty long in the back. In order to fit the mini into the car I had to make my own right-angle DVI to VGA adapter. I did this by pinning out, taking apart, and re-wiring an existing DVI to VGA adapter," writes ZapWizard. You definitely need to go check out the rest of his pictures. It looks like ZapWizard has some mad soldering skills. More Information:   Discuss   More News
