I know a lot of you are running the Mac-Mini, but I'm curious to see what everyone is running. Here's my setup:

24" Alum iMac 2.8ghz
DVI -> HDMI
42" Plasma 1280x720
Optical Out to Yamaha RX-V1

Let's hear how you do it...

Primary:

2.0Ghz Core 2 Duo Mac Mini/1GB ram
(DVI-to-HDMI)
Sony KDL-46XBR4 [probably the best LCD HDTV available for a reasonable price in a sometimes sunny room]
(awaiting finding the best priced-to-feature AVR, so headphone jack to RCA audio-in on Sony...The one drawback is no optical in ports on the HDTV)

Secondary:

1.83GHz Core Duo Mac Mini/2GB ram
(DVI)
Apple 22" LCD monitor
(Firewire-connected LaCie Speakers)

Forgot my important new addition I received today from Amazon.com:

Apple's new bluetooth keyboard and the Kensington Slimblade bluetooth trackball mouse...

The keyboard is a treeeeeemendously fine piece of design (so light!)

The mouse, once I figured out the two clicks puts it into trackball mode...Joy!

Setup:
- MacBook Pro 2.0 GHz (first gen Intel Mac...read "Old")
- 4.5 TB of random hard drives. Almost full of HD content.
- Panasonic PT-AE900U (using DVI -> HDMI cable). Plays 24p content at 48 Hz. Only projecting to a 90" screen. If I go any larger I can see pixels from my viewing distance. Sad Can't wait to go 1080p. Smile
- Rotel RSP-1066 Pre/Pro
- Rotel RMB-1075 5-channel amplifier
- Old Sony receiver to power the rear 2 channels of this 7.1 channel setup.
- Polk CS400 Center Channel
- Polk RT55 Mains
- Polk f/x 500 Surrounds
- Polk RT55 Rears
- Velodyne HGS-12 Subwoofer
- Philips Pronto TSU-7000

All of it, except for the Velodyne is getting upgraded this year. B&W's all around will be soon. New Mac when Apple offers me something compelling. New Rotel gear and Panasonic projector towards the end of the year when the latest and greatest come out. Of course new HD's are already on order...I hate erasing data. Smile

P.S. XBMC for Mac OS X is incredible. I've been waiting years for something like this. All of my thanks to the developers and admins.
