Mac Mediacenter - UI for Mobile Macs?
The Mac Mini is only short a DIN mounting cage and wiring harness as an in-dash ready to go computer. FOrtunately that minor oversight will be corrected with an iSomethingorother from one of the many white/blue/clear plastic Mac fetishists. Bless them and their ability to fill in the blanks Apple leaves behind. The missing link for Macs to be viable in an an automotive or home theater setting is the 10' UI. What can you use from across the room. Center Stage Project is looking to fix that and not wasting any time doing it. The UI is already very usable with that OSX feel and soothing Mac icons. I would love to see a retail box product come out of this in the next few months. As with anything that is as fluid as mobile computing, it will need to be upgraded on the fly as new plugins and patches come to market. In the meantime we all anxiously await a final beta. I wonder how commited they are to the platform, I didnt see an "i" in front of any of their markenting language. I'll write them a note telling the people wont know its a Mac project unless they call it the iCenter iStage iProject.
