RE: Finally Mac Mini Compared

I thought I was pretty clear. You don't need a high power CPU and dedicated graphics if the PC is just streaming data. I don't need a high spec PC to get high quality audio from my DAC, data without dropouts will suffice. I'm pointing out the obvious which is that processing is not limited to the CPU or the motherboard or dedicated chipsets, it's also in the networked devices. The PC may well be contributing very little indeed.
