I really think XBMC is about as good as it gets for Media Center software, though I've heard Plex (which is based on XBMC) is quite good as well.
Can it play Apple DRM movie files from iTunes?

I looked at Plex but it wouldn't play any of the plug-in videos unless I downgraded my flash to version 10.0.X. This sucked and I stopped looking into Plex as a Media Center.

As to the original post. The Mini is a great home theatre device but isn't the Mini due for a refresh soon? I figure the spec's on the new Mini would look similar to the 13" MBP. Wouldn't it be better to wait for the refresh model?
