im thinking of buying a mac mini because my pc is near enough dead.

couple of things i need to know before i waste £600 tho!

1 - can i run the internet through the mac then network it to my xbox and spare room pc - so i can get the internet on my xbox and other pc still?

2 - Can i get a wireless network card and do the above using airport?

3 - Is there any software for downloading torrent files using a mac?



Cheers

2. If you can do this with a PC you should be able to with a mac as it is just a router, right?
