Plans for the Mac mini are now officially scrapped. Now I’m gonna get a Hauppage WinTV PVR 150 MCE PCI card, so that I can hook up my PS2, and also a gig of PC3200 memory so this machine can actually run VM’s reasonably. Just need to figure out this ECC requirement/non-requirement business if I […]
