It's a small box too. I've had a Mac Mini ( the mini-mini 2010 version) running alongside my PC since last August, and I figure it's time to give it some love. So, after getting a nice deal on some Mac Software (including Parallels 6) for $49, I decided to get a family pack of Windows 7 from Amazon for about $120, and to upgrade the 2 gigs of ram to 8 gigs at Crucial.com for $100 or so. It won't be a huge gaming machine, but my nearly 3 year old Gateway with a swapped out power supply and video card isnt cutting edge these days either.
I won't have to fun Fantasy Grounds via Crossover anymore either, which was far from a perfect solution
In any case, when I move to the new (currently being renovated) rooms, I think I'll run the Alienware Netbook from x-mass alongside my revamped Mac Mini. I only boot up the PC to play Rift or load up Fantasy Grounds these days, and the long boot time and loud ass fan noise is killing me. The Alienware handles gaming fairly well, at least as well as my PC it seems, tho' I'll see how well it does with my 28" monitor.
Damn, there's an update for my iPad available too. Guess that will wait till this weekend too.
Oh, and a link for Your Majesty's new "R" trailer.

silly but fun. It had Dwayne Johnson, Chris Evans, and J. K. Simmons as
Santa. ...
