I am actually just days or weeks away from buying a new Mac Mini for
exactly this purpose. My old TV computer is a "chipped" Xbox and it's
growing old... (still running a 2.4 kernel and my ancient brute-force
libusb driver hack actually) and after researching a number of various
possible choices of new hardware, the Mac Mini ended up as my favourite.

So I'm not yet in a position to say that I have tried it on the Mac
Mini, but I am totally confident that Mike's USB driver is going to work.
And if I'm wrong, let's make it work :-)
