Just wanted to get a thread going on what people have been using for media directors? Hardware? Video Cards? Sound Cards? Cases? So i can get some ideas of what is out there. Thanks

I try to use Intel-based Mac Mini - http://www.apple.com/macmini/. Also, you can check aOpen mini PC - http://minipc.aopen.com/us/spec.htm which looks like MAc Mini. ASUS DIGIMATRIX - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16856110011 seems a good choice for MD.

What are you running on your mac mni? can you use a ir remote with that or are you using a gc100 or irtrans..etc. Also does pluto recognize the internal bluetooth on the mini. pretty much are you limited on anytihng if you use the mac mini?
