Ok, so a few people have suggested it (1,2) and a few Mac related questions have appeared in the cycovision - pc help thread, so here's my Mac Help thread.

Feel free to post any Mac related questions here and myself (and others) will try to help. If its a Mac and Sony Ericsson mobile phone related question, check out the following threads and my own site:

Apple Macintosh and Sony Ericsson issues
Online update service for Mac users?
Add K750 to iSync in Mac OS X 10.3 Panther and 10.4 Tiger
Using the Sony Ericsson K700 with an Apple Mac

Otherwise, a few links to other helpful places are here:

Apple Support
Apple Discussions
MacFixIt
Mac OS X hints


Cheers!

Jools

What version of Mac OS X are you using and what broadband modem is it?

If it's a USB one I would seriously consider chucking it in the bin (or flogging it on eBay) and getting an Ethernet ADSL Router/Modem (such as the Netgear DG834).

USB ADSL Modems are quite rubbish and tricky to get working on Macs as the manufacturers hardly ever bother writing decent drivers. Ethernet routers require no drivers and work out-of-the-box.

Ah, the Speedtouch - that's probably the best of the USB ones!

I presume you've downloaded the latest drivers for it?

SpeedTouch™ 330 R3.0.1.2

I was thinking of getting one of those Mac mini things. What I’d ideally like to use it for is more of a home entertainment thing.
I would like to know how easy would it be for me just hook it up to the TV and use it as a DVD player and HD recorder (so I can watch me avi’s and rm files) kinda have it sitting next to the old DVD player and video.

Or is this not possible or not worth the trouble?
