Hi,
I'm considering getting a used G4 MacMini and hooking it up to a 1080p projector mainly for movie watching. Why not Intel? Because I have a few old OS 9 games I like to play from time to time. There's no classic environment on the Intel Macs.
I know the Mini supports resolutions up to 1920 x 1200. But just because I can, does it mean I should? What is the performance running H.264-encoded full HD 1080p material? Does it run smoothly?
I saw the Bare Feats review here, but they don't mention video playback.
Also is there any hardware extension, anything, that would allow a dual-screen setup? That is, not mirrored, but two independent screens.
Thanks
