Thanks for that, but what I was meaning I am unable to use my cable box now as
i can no longer read the on screen menus which control TV on demand and the EPG
etc. I have a Virgin V+ box with 160GB hard drive installed. It would be
useful if Virgin would update their software to enable the use

To be honest, I want a macbook first. I just got this mini last month and felt
guilty for it then. I think having another Mac mini for use with the television
would be a great idea though. I have a friend who uses his own computers as a

Why is it sluggish without a monitor? That does not make sense. Why should
someone blind be forced into paying for a monitor they can't see and running up
extra electricity costs.

Hi,
I've never used a monitor with my Mack mini. Even with setup, I didn't use a
mouse, but it was kind of tough, without the mouse plus, I didn't really know
much about the Mack. But other than that, my Mack Mini works fine without the
monitor, kind of sluggish with Safari though.
Hth,
Courtney
Well all them pairs of shoes and hand bags she bought which were apparently on

Thanks to Mike Arrigo I found out about the monitor requirement. I bought this
mac last month and spent 2 days trying to figure out why web pages loaded so
slowly. Once I bought the dongle to use with my monitor, life was great and my
mac experience became awesome.

I"m not so sure that a monitor is required, although it might be for the
initial setup. I can say for sure a keyboard and mouse are required for the
setup. I think when I had my mini back in 08 that it was required but I'm unsure
