[QUOTE="uneekwahn, post: 61688, member: 21851"] Hi everyone, new to the forums and new to HTPC systems. Currently running xbox media centre through my 42" LG plasma and am wanting to get into the HD video content, which the xbox is unable to play. I've looked at building a new machine using shuttles SD31P and fitting it out with a 3+ghz intel cpu, couple of gig of ram, a nice 500gb sata drive and a radeon x1600/1800 video card. I came here to do some searching on what setups people were running and came across this thread and I think I may go down the path of the mac mini, purely because of it's eye-pleasing aesthetics. I probably won't be running much 1080i/p HD content, primarly 720p I would guess, and am thinking of picking up the Core Duo system. Does the Mac Mini play all 720p/1080i/1080p content flawlessly? I'll also be using the system for music and htel ikes, but primarly for tv shows and dvds etc. Thanks in advance. Jason. [/QUOTE]
