It just may be possible to portablise a mac mini! *link*

Post by dunks0r »

Here is a guide to running a mac mini on li poly batteries, in place of the cdrw/dvd pretty amazing stuff, my only worry would be about heat!

Well i thought it might actualy stir up some interest in it, or maybe even a pc based itx project.

Nearly two hours is impressive, but it is running debian so not sure how much of a stress test it had, i highly doubt you would get 1hr playing halo.

Dam that's a nice battery! 4.5 volts at 4 a/h? Wonder how long 2 of those could run a PSone...

But they must cost a mint and a half.
