Apple Apple's Mac mini will be reborn as the digital hub centerpiece it was originally conceived to be, sources have disclosed. The new Mac mini project, code-named Kaleidoscope, will feature an Intel processor and include both Front Row 2.0 and TiVo-like DVR functionality. While the specific model and speed of the Intel processor in the new Mac mini is unknown, sources are confident the system will be ready for roll-out at Macworld Expo San Francisco, in line with other reports Think Secret has received that Intel-based Macs will be ready some six months sooner than originally expected.

Dual boot OS X and Win XP not useful?

If one sets up a dual boot OS X and Win XP system on an Intel based Mac, won't there still be problems because Win XP uses NTFS? I'm not sure that OS X would be able to read and write natively to an NTFS partition or that Win XP can do the same to Apple's filesystem. I know this is one of the annoying things about my Linux/Win2K dual boot system -- I wound up having to set up a shared data partition so that both OS's could read and write the same data files.
