We are thinking of using a Macintel Mac Mini as a front-end but  
before I drop the money on a another project I would be interested in  
hearing about any experience people have had with it as a "family  
room" front-end (read as wife and child friendly). We would be using  
it primarily for MythTV and iTunes.

- How stable is are the macintel binaries?

- Any limitations or setup issues?

- Will it drive a 1080p monitor? (We just got a Westinghouse LVM-42w2).

- Are there any sound issues? Does the TOSLINK adapter work?

- How is the over all usability? Does it integrate with frontrow?

Thanks,
-marc
