So this means that the only time I'd run into this is if I try to watch something through a VGA port converter, right? Since if you were on a machine that has a DVI or HDMI or DisplayPort connection and you are connecting it to a DVI monitor (like, …

If the sony player had Blu-Ray and could read media off a networked hard drive AND was cheaper than a Ps3 Sony can charge my card now.

The PS3 (a well selling BR player) is selling at 399 here in canada. I wouldn't be surprised if Apple and Sony partnered together to give blu-Ray an iPod-like shot in the arm, especially if it looks favorably to entice Sony movie downloads into the …

actually, it sounds to me that if you were to wipe the internal drive, or trick the console into booting from an external drive, it would be able to run tiger if it were accessible. No more, no less. In it's self though, that is kinda cool, have osx…
