Hello everyone,
I am using an eye tv and the primary parts of the application are
more than 100 times more accessible than a TiVo. The program guide and the
preferences are not accessible, however all of the controls for manipulating
the TV is. I can use the Bluetooth keyboard as my remote and it is really
awesome. Backing up is a touch of the left arrow key. I have not saved any
programs yet so I cannot comment yet. So far it is pretty cool. I plan on
having two displays for those who can see so that they can multi task. I am
also looking at home automation equipment to connect to the mini as well.
The sky is the limit with this little bugger.
Later,
Scott

In my opinion getting dvds into itunes on the mac is easier than under
windows. The only down-side to using a mac as your entertainment hub is
that TV is very difficult, if not impossible to access. There seems to be
only one aplication for tv watching on the mac, EyeTV, and it's absolutely
useless with voiceover, although from all accounts it's a cool programme!
Apart from that, the mac is a good option.
Vaughn.

computer to be a Mac. Here's the question. What do we do with our DVD
collection? Can this be imported into iTunes? I'm very curious to know
what others have done.
