You also can't get AppleTV to work with DVDs or images. You CAN use other movies other than iTunes movies as long as they are in the correct format. On the other hand, why stereo with such a great setup. The headphone jack on the mini is also an optical output. With the right cable and receiver you get 5.1! http://www.macworld.com/article/49772/2006/03/macmini.html You can’t get AppleTV to work with an external drive.

I have one already and would love to just have it store my DriveIn files. The problem there is storage. I am not sure you can get AppleTv to work with an external drive.

If your system denies to run due to an error corresponding to lost HAL.DLL, invalid Boot.ini or any other critical system boot files you can repair this by using the XP installation CD. Simply boot from your XP Setup CD and enter the Recovery Console. Then launch "attrib -H -R -S" on the C:\Boot.ini file and delete it. Run "Bootcfg /Rebuild" and then Fixboot Regards, Carl Good Day

Very worthy system for me. Now I just need a larger hard drive in my powerbook for my next trip. Didn’t know Drive In was moving to a final release. Very worthy system for me.
