What if you still have your key, but your Mac Mini gives up the blue smoke? My wife's new Mac Mini (x86) gave up the smoke after 1.25 years, so the reliability of 2nd hand machines can be of concern. Will your key work on another Mac mini?


@Red

Keep in mind the word X86, x86 macs are lower quality than ppc macs generally speaking. IDK about the MOS key, its dongled to the HW.

I now have a powermac G4 MDD 1.5 ghz (1.25 OC) with 512 meg ram and tiger on a 140gig HDD. Cost me about $60, and runs better than what I had, a P4 3ghz winxp pro 1GB machine. I'll probably upgrade to leopard when i get more ram, hack ilife 09 to run on it (change an address line in HEX) and put debian linux with hosted AROS and MorphOS 2.5 registered with a key ona CD and external HDD.
My machines:
PowerMac G4 MDD 1.5ghz 1.25GB 10.5.8 & MOS 2.7
Mac Mini C2D 10.6.8 2GHz 3GB 250GB HDD
MacBook Retina 16GB 256GB SSD 10.8
iPad 2

Need a part for a PC or Mac? PM me, I\'ll let you know if I come across it.

OS X trumps Windows on every level.

MorphOS, OS4 and Classic Amiga systems are the only ones who are real \'Amigas\', not that joke AROS or Amiga Forever.

He is talking about the Efika, which i think OS4 would've been perfect on btw. The Efika, however, is the only ppc machine that was affordable up until ppc macs for MOS
