Perhaps low bitrate, or non-full-frame 1080p, sure. Full frame 1080p at a decent bitrate (even just 10-12Mbps) does not play fine on a 1.83GHz c2d intel mac mini.
It is close, mind you, so I'd expect a 2.33GHz c2d (or maybe even a 2.0GHz if you're lucky) to perform OK on that media.
Higher bitrate (i.e. closer to real bluray sources) h264 or VC1 is a different story - good luck getting 1080p to play on anything less than 3GHz.
Cheers,
Jonathan
