Hey everyone, I'm looking for some help. I just purchased my first Mac mini, the $799 model. I mainly bought this to use as a home theater. As of now, I will only be using this to watch movies/shows I've bought in iTunes, as well as any digital copies of movies I have. This all seems really boring and standard.
One question I do have is that I will also use my Apple TV in my bedroom to stream movies. Can I do this while the Mac mini is asleep? If not, is the solution to keep the mac awake at all times? This seems pretty wasteful.
I'm not super tech savy. I plan on putting MAME on there so that I can play some arcade classics on my huge TV. What are some other things I should be doing with my Mac to take advantage of this? Thanks in advance for any replies.
