Mac mini: ultimate iPod accessory?

People will buy many strange and
curious accessories to go with their iPods this season. iPod Lounge has got another accessorization scheme in mind: you might want a Mac mini to go with that iPod.

The iPod Lounge folk also put the mini through its paces in this article.
Check out the benchmarks, and I can safely say I agree from my own experience with the machine – the mini is no slouch.
Far from being "underpowered," it has actually been leaving my Powerbook in the dust on several occasions, even at the minimum 256M RAM configuration. As the article suggests, though, I highly recommend spending the dough to upgrade the memory to 512M or 1G. Their suggestion after a battery of tests on different Mac mini configurations is that you're better off getting the base 1.25Ghz model and adding RAM to it than opting for the 1.42G model and leaving it stock.
The Photoshop benchmarks show a huge performance jump between the 256M and 512M RAM configurations in both models.

What do you think – will iPod users be tempted to pick up a Mac mini as an "accessory" to the digital audio player?
