Nice work Elan!
Is there enough power in the new macminis to run XBMC MAC OSX?
Is it possible to stream movies from rar archives in network?

New site for XBMC on OS X - elan - 2008-01-13
I've set up a site for the OS X porting effort: http://www.osxbmc.com. I'll be posting subsequent updates there, as well as posting download links for builds when they become available. The site has an RSS feed you can subscribe to.

Does this mean XBMC would be running in 64-bit?
Isn't Mac OSX 64-bit running on 64-bit processors?

No, it's not 64 bit. Mac OS X can run 64-bit binaries, but XBMC ain't one of 'em. I would assume both that (a) it would take a fair bit of work to get a 64-bit version working and (b) the real-world speed gains would be modest.
Now a version of ffmpeg with highly optimized SSE4 assembly, that would make a difference.

Green screen issues with video on ATI video cards? Check my blog for a new version which fixes this problem.

Elan, I noticed some mention on your blogs about improving Mplayer's performance. Over on the MythTV mailing list "davilla at 4pi" (aka Scott Davilla) has made huge strides getting MythTV and MPlayer running smoothly on an AppleTV. I'm no developer so I apologize if none of it is useful to you, but I thought some of the work he's done might help you in getting XBMC's Mplayer running more smoothly. A great thread with his progress is archived over at http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/315018?search_string=appletv;#315018
