Thoughts about the new MacMini & Lion OS


I'm wondering what audiophiles who use MacMinis as music servers think about the new MMs that do not have an optical drive.

I'm also wondering what audiophiles think about the Lion OS on a MM that's used primarily for audio playback.

Your thoughts are appreciated.

:) listening,

Drubin,

Yes, we are all set on the 2011 Mach2 Server. The new Mac Mini is a very good upgrade. I maintain our website so updates can be done quickly. It comes in handy with Apples variable release dates. ;-)

We've been looking at Lion. You see how fast we moved on the 2011 Mac Mini. If we saw benefit from Lion, we'd release a Lion build today.

iTunes probably sounds a bit better with Lion because the latest iTunes release is 64bit, not because of Lion itself.

Mojo Audio appears to be doing a similar thing, except their focus is on the power supply. The software mods, they are putting in an FAQ.
