OK, I'm drinking the kool aid and considering getting back into the Mac Pool after a 15 year hiatus.

Seems the Mac Mini has a DVI dvd player. Could anyone venture a guess as to whether this would be a viable alternate as a DVI DVD player, on par w/ the newer Samsung and Denon's w/ DVI? Then I could use this w/ my plasma via DVI.

Then it would be a $500 ($600+ maybe since I'd go w/ the faster CPU) DVD player w/ a computer thrown in for free...
