Or! Bring your mini when you come over. We can try to replicate and then solve the issue with my PC.

Plus, we all get to play with the mini.

May I post a link at the OB?

I know it's a pipe dream but I'd really love it if the link went no further than this thread. It seems I've already gotten eight vists from Fox this month and I'm not sure I want to know what a C&D letter feels like.

Allyson, the mac keyboard would cause other issues, I think.

Okay. I solved my keyboard issue. And I also solved my test drive copy of Word overiding my actualy copy of Word issue too. But I'll bring the mini anyway, cause CUTE!

Between the mini, and the two shuffles and the ipod, it feels like we are becoming an Apple household again.

Weird.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

No problem, Kristen. That is why I asked. I am just glad that I get to see the goodies. I am sure everyone else will in time and there are really only a few people over there who are as interested in this as I am.

I want a mini. Actually, I want two. One for my house and one for my car...Oh! And possibly one for the plasma TV I will someday own.

Yeah. I really need to stop visiting byodkm.net

you mean a Mac Mini, right?

What's byodkm.net?

Oh. figgered it out. Henh. Apparently they do go in cars.

What else can I do with a mac mini?


Kristen - Mar 20, 2005 7:04:50 pm PST #5387 of 10001

Yes, I do. I thought I could use one mini as like a little server for all the files I don't need to carry around on the Shiny!PowerBook!of!Fabulousness! I've been trying to get a free one but I still need two more people.

And byodkm.net is a mac mini fansite. They post all the latest mac mini stories. There's a bunch of people who have put them in their cars. And there was a story the other day about a company that is doing custom coloring of the cases.

I think one of my imaginary mac minis is pink.

You can by a pink skin for one at skinit. I probably will.

Okay, but why put them in a car? Why attach it to a plasma TV? What's the benefit?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Why attach it to a plasma TV?

Media server, kinda TiVoish.

Don't get the car thing, though, unless it's a music server.

Some of them are. Some of them aren't.

I mean, I could put my entire CD collection on a mini and load it into my car. That's even better than PhatNoise.

And, see, this is why I need to stay away from that site. I turn into an episode of Pimp My Ride.

An 80G mini, Kristen? Cause otherwise, why not just get an iPod?

Huh.
