Experience with Mach2 Music Server?

Tvad,

I have a hard time imagining that you would hear it. I am not sure what you would expect though, the mini is almost silent, probably quieter than a laptop. I can hear my external drive, but not my mini. Otherwise buy a mini, and if you like it, send it to them for their mods.

That's an option, 4est.

4est, do you also have a monitor and keyboard? I assume so, otherwise how can you configure your Mini (preferences changes, etc)?

I own only a MacBook Pro, and therefore the question about how to configure the Mini arises without also purchasing a monitor and keyboard. For example, to use a VNC app on my iPod Touch, I would need to turn on screen sharing on the Mini, and this would require a monitor and keyboard.

Perhaps, I can borrow these from a friend...

@ dmccombs and Tvad... my apology regarding the incorrect information about the 2010 Mini being fanless. I thought that I'd been told that along the way and I had no reason to think otherwise... the thing is so quiet. Again, my apology.

:) listening,

Ed

Tvad - no need for a monitor and keyboard to control the Mini. Just switch the Mini on and then control it via screen sharing with the Macbook Pro - this is what I do in my system, and it's easy as pie. Far more enjoyable IMO than using an iPod Touch, iPhone, etc.
