Title: WTS: Mac Mini G4 w/ Registered MorphOS
Post by: kd7ota on February 01, 2011, 01:10:41 AM
Hello,

I am considering selling my Mac Mini G4 1.25GHZ/512MB RAM/80GB Hard drive.

I registered MorphOS for it a few months back.  Its a great computer, but I am really not using it as much as I thought I would.. Id rather sell it to someone who would make great use out of it.

I paid $100+ for the Mac Mini and $100+ registration of MorphOS.  Ill settle for $225 shipped anywhere in the USA.  I only go through PayPal.

Thanks. :) Ill do my best to check often on here. I live in Nevada, USA :).

Where are you located?
How did you get a MorphOS registration key for only $100?
And are you including a keyboard or mouse?

I didnt get the key for $100, I paid the price it costs now to register :) I just put $100+ cause I forgot how much registration was.

Its just the bare unit... I do have a clear keyboard from an eMac I used for it, but I already got rid of it, so its just a 4 port usb hub, the mac mini, and the power cord to it.  Ill have MorphOS 2.7 preinstalled fresh with the key already in it.

I am located in Nevada :) If your talking about a specific town, its Fallon, NV.

That is a good price for a registered MorphOS2.x system.  All the buyer would need to complete it is any USB mouse & keyboard, plus a monitor, and they would have a nice, small footprint, fast, MorphOS2.7 system.

I have a 1.5GHz G4 MacMini with registered MorphOS2.7/MacOSX10.5.8 dual boot and love it.  Really like the Amiga compatibility (runs lots of original Amiga 68k software without needing to load EUAE + PowerUP/WarpUP software), the speed, low power consumption and small size.

Well Dave, I like your system, but this system has half the video memory and its slower. The price is OK considering the 111 euro charge for the key, but I'd rather have your computer.

Wow! A MorphOS user in Fallon... and I thought it was only coyotes and rednecks out that way.

Just teasing of course. Good luck with the sale. :-)

Thanks! :)  I was in Kansas up until I finished college.  Would have been nice if it were a 1.5ghz Mac Mini, but 1.25ghz is still quite impressive.

I am not looking to trade :( I actually have an Icom 706MKII, LDG antenna tuner, and MFG antenna analyzer to try to get myself in the HF bands.  If I were needing amps for 2m/440, I would have definately done it.

But thanks for the offer. :)  I got 1 person who might be interested in buying tomorrow, but its still for sale to whoever comes paying for it first. :)

If there are any AmigaOS/MorphOS developers in North America that need a MorphOS2.x compatible computer to test their MorphOS2.x software on, or to develop/port MorphOS2.x native software with this registered MacMini, I will help pay half the purchase cost for them to get this computer.  You must have some successful programming experience with examples of your work and a desire to continue to write new, or port existing software to MorphOS2.x.

Contact me via PMail, or email to discuss this offer.

This is a great way to get a MorphOS2.x compatible computer that has a MorphOS2.x license key for less than the cost of a new MorphOS2.x license key alone, or in other words, the MacMini is free and the MorphOS2.x license key is less than the current 111 euro price (depending on what the exchange rate from euros to dollars is on any given day).

Jump on this chance to get into writing new software for MorphOS2.x, or porting existing software (yours or Open Source) to MorphOS.2x and get a free G4 MacMini for less than the cost of the MorphOS2.x license key that it already has installed on it.

Pending sale. Someone offered $200 for it and im tempted to go with it. Ill let you all know if it goes through or not.

But thanks amigadave for your generosity on offering someone to help pay for it.  The thought counts.

Let's hope I actually receive this one now! :laughing:

You guys and gals remember what happened the last time I purchased a MacMini w/ MorphOS from here?  :mad:
