FC4 went in like nothing, once I nuked the Mac partitions (use the OSX 
install disc and then dig around for the Disk Manager utility). Linux 
seems to be running just fine on it. It is MythTV that is giving me such 
heart-ache!
I swear, with all the hype that came about when the Mini was introduced, 
I would think this would be a slam dunk by now.
But, NOOOOOO!
