Any way to run AppleTV interface on Mac Mini? - zero - 01-27-2008

Is there any way to run the AppleTV interface on a Mac Mini?
If so, could you explain how to set this up?

TIA!

The old interface or the one shown off @ MW?

The old interface = Front Row, which works fine on a Mini. If you have an older mini w/o the the IR you can buy a Keyspan USB IR.

You mean the Front Row interface, right?

I haven't seen much of the AppleTV, but my impression is that it looks a lot like the Leopard Front Row software. Compare the two, if you've got an Apple Retail Store close to you. If they are close enough for you, all you need is the Leopard software and the Mini.

That's ATV 2.0. I haven't seen a hack for that one yet, but it'll surely be along sooner or later...
