@David: it doesn’t do well when I’m trying to watch a movie (VLC) and use Eclipse + Web Browser at the same time. Unpar/unrar’ing grinds the entire system to a halt. I haven’t used a Mac Pro, so I don’t know if these are general system issues or not.

Is there any chance that you could elaborate on the performance issues, Jon?

Rafael – Correct. 2 Monitors, different output. Specifically, I’m using 2x LG W2600H. It’s pretty awesome.

I’m not particularly impressed (truthfully, very disappointed) with the performance. Considering getting a Psystar tower.

So, you are using 2 different screeens (not mirrored), one on each output of the mac mini?
Just to be sure!
