My Mac Mini really wants to play with my Media Center 2005 Remote Control! That's okay it has a 23" LCD to play with...

I'll have to try the F buttons. One thing I can confirm is that the Volume control on the keyboard does work with OS X, which is cool.

Next for me is to load Tiger on it.

Why?

But then realized it doesn't even have optical out. Quite a shame, I was going to use it for a MP3 player.

optical would be quite overkill for mp3s
you can just get a headphone -> rca cord
and have a great mp3 player that doesnt have to convert digital and analog sound for no reason

PC user here wants to buy one!!

I'm thinking with this, I could get one to hook up to my Samsung DLP in the living room for use as the 'home' computer. Bluetooth keyboard + mouse & surf the net form the couch, view photos, iTunes...firewire in from my Moto 6208 DVR box to archive HD shows...wow...the possibilities!!

Let's put it this way... I'm currently running the latest versions of the adobe suite, Macromedia suite, and a few other things just fine on my G4 400 PCI. The only think that gets a little snarky is running Garageband. BUT HEY! We're not talking 'bout my machine! The Mac Mini smokes my machine. ASAP, I am going to get one.

Yes, the F buttons works great along with all the other keys.

You have to download the OS X drivers for the Microsoft Keyboard / Mouse, called IntelliType 5.1 for Mac. I have the Digital Media Pro Keyboard.

Go here to download the drivers.
