On the other hand, I am greatly disappointed in the GM950's ability to playback movies I had imported into iTunes (pixellated video with jerky playback).
I have a confession to make: the movies play without a hitch in quicktime at their prescribed size and only appear pixellated in iTunes since it plays the same files at full screen. I was being idiotic when I thought this was a problem with the machine; instead, it was a problem with the user (me)! I love my mini unconditionally now and and even more saddened by the recent rumors of it being EOLed.
video in iTunes runs poorly even on my dual core windows box w/ 2gb of ram.
quicktime trailers, etc. up to 1080p are fine, but as soon as an IM notification comes up when I'm watching a video through iTunes, my machine slows to a crawl.
