Mac mini as Embedded Development Platform

Posted by timothy on from the one-for-each-passenger-in-my-car dept.

Ohreally_factor writes "Peter Seebach has written a paper over at IBM developerWorks on the potential use of the Mac mini as a high-end embedded development board. Quote from the article: 'Comparing it to other embedded systems, you'll find that it's not much bigger, and it's smaller than some. It has a broader array of connectors, a faster processor, support for a very large amount of memory, and comes with self-hosted development tools. In short, if you look at it as an embedded development platform, it's a competitive one.'"

    Whenevery I read these Apple-sponsored advertisements ("Articles"), I want to:
    - spank Steve Jobs on his naked butt for creating a good operating system but making it available only on a ridiculously childish and underpowered platform
    - shit CumTaco down his neck for being a ugly fucker

    (I admit that the last point may be considered off-topic.)
