AppleTV vs "full" Mac computer
Authored by: makip on Oct 26, '07 08:52:47PM

I strongly considered the AppleTV. Ultimately I thought the value wasnt there given its limitations. Not all the media I want to play works in itunes. Also compared to the apple tv, a full mac is capable of playing much higher bit-rate videos, and also up-scales the DVDs it plays. I couldnt workout why playing my DVDs looked so much worse on my DVD player until I realised the Mac mini I have as a media cenre was upscaling to the 1360x768 tv display its connected to.
Front Row isn't great it wont play all media formats either - I am keenly watching all these media centre applications.
