It's no longer a challenge. The Mini will easily fit in the CC chassis. A modification to the chassis might even allow the Mini to sit so the DVD slot fits at the right height for the floppy slot without any mod. to the Mini. If not an extension cable for the DVD and a custom bracket will put i

Re: Color Classic DVD

I read a few years ago that you needed a 450 Mhz Pentium II/III processor to decode DVDs (or full-screen MPEG2) in real time.
