I'll be posting something about that soon. I tried one or two 720p videos while I had Vista installed, and didn't experience any problems. That said, I couldn't find any working sound drivers... It's worth keeping in mind that Shuttle's recently released mini PCs - the Mini X 200 series - use the same integrated Intel graphics as the Mac Mini (GMA950). If Shuttle have created a machine specfically designed for Media Center, and built around this chipset, it should be fine. Sorry Sean, I don’t actually have the Mini any longer.

In particular can you playback high-def content (720p at least) without any performance hiccups? Cheers Hi
