Onlt thing, you gain Beo4 control which you don&#39;t really have unless you stick the STB cable onto the Macbook. For mac mini and apple TV this is possible, for Beo 5 its not needed since it can control Apple directly.</p> <p>The Beoport at this point does really have very limited use I must say, especially if you are part of the Apple Universe.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/186453.aspxFri, 27 Feb 2009 01:29:04 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:186453Knubbi0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/186453.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=27&PostID=186453<p>Does using a Beoport have any benefit vs. connecting a MacBook to a BV 7-40 directly?
