Re: Top 10 Reasons to Buy Matrox MXO2 Mini – Not Intensity Pro
by Andy Mees on Jun 4, 2009 at 10:03:35 am

Yep, the mini is a great buy Bret ... functionally far superior to the Intensity board, its completely portable and for most folks it's critical monitoring capability alone is well worth any extra apparent cost. Now, as for the reason for purchasing the much much more expensive IoHD vs the Mini ... well thats obviously a very stretched comparison, apart from both being I/O boxes they are very different products. An MXO2 (not Mini) vs IoHD would be a somewhat fairer comparison, and one that has been done to death already (just do a search here) but what it boils down to is that one offers on board Apple ProRes 422 compression and decompression hardware (the IoHD) and one does not (the MXO2) ... if you are in the camp that needs on board Apple ProRes 422 compression and decompression hardware then the choice is very clear.
Hope that helps
Andy
