I've never dealt with any hi-def stuff before, so I'm wondering, will a G4 Mac mini be able to handle it adequately? I'm talking about recording HDTV from EyeTV, movie playback, possibility of using an external BluRay or HD-DVD drive when they come down in price -- is that doable or will it require a more powerful system than an ol' mini?
Been thinking about getting a 24" widescreen for the mini, but if it can't handle HD content that well then I may as well start saving for a newer, faster Mac...
(btw, I'm not talking about HDCP or any of that stuff; I assume that isn't supported by the mini's graphics card. I just want to know if the machine is capable, performance-wise)
