Post by: irishmike on October 29, 2006, 09:46:24 PM: Hi All:

I know this is not an Amiga, but I am needing to get some money really soon. I am offering up my Macintosh Mini for sale (an entire system, not just the computer). Specifications follow:

1.5 GHZ PowerPC Processor
1 GB Ram
80 GB Hard Drive
DVD/CD-RW Combo Drive
iSight Camera
Apple Keyboard
Kensigton Bluetooth Mouse
Airport G and Bluetooth built in
10/100 LAN built in.

Software:

iWOrk and iLife '06 ($150 value)

If picked up locally, 17" Dell CRT monitor.

I have been asking $475 USD (or reasonable offer) plus I would flat rate $45 USD shipping to US lower 48 states.

-- OR --

Will trade system for full working A4000 system with keyboard and mouse for it even.

If interested, please PMAIL me.

But good luck with the sale.

Selling her because of two reasons. One) I program and the market is more geared towards Microsoft programming than Macintosh... been trying for years to do that and obviously it has not worked out.

Two) Needed the money to get some gear or I need to find a whole machine. Anyhow, because I have this great notebook computer to do my programming work, the mac became a way to make some cash for my vintage computer hobby. Either way, sell or trade, it is funding some part of my computer hobby. ;-)

It is absolutely a great machine and it will make someone very happy.

Good luck with the sale. Alas I fear that it is not a good time to sell PPC macs, though I hope I'm wrong about that.

Haven't ever tried it though.

Post by: beller on October 30, 2006, 02:00:27 AM: Hmmm...I've been trying to sell a similar mini for several months with no luck...and mine had the DVD burner but only 768 ram. I've been asking $400 to help pay for the core duo mini I bought. No takers so far....I'm open to offers.
