FS: Rare MAC-Mini G4 w/registered MorphOS

[palemoon]

I am parting with my MAC Mini and a fully registered MorphOS 2.4. The MAC Mini specs are:

rare 1.5ghz G4 CPU
1gb memory
80gb hard drive
installed Bluetooth
Installed Wireless
Superdrive (can burn CDs and DVDs)
MAC Mini OS X Tiger restore discs
MAC Mighty Mouse
MAC keyboard

Fully registered MorphOS included. This includes the disc and key.

I have over $700 invested.

$500 obo

Not a bad price, but why is Mac capitalized in every instance?

Sorry, that's just how I've always typed it. I've been typing it that way for years. :laughing:

So now that MorphOS runs on Mac min the previously abundant G4 Mac Mini has now become "rare". (check Ebay and CL in the USA)

How the hell you manage to spend $700 on a G4? This a gold mac?

If you user install apple internal Bluetooth Wireless and superdrive you approach amiga prices...(wait I take that back... quintuplie the price of everything on this post to reach amiga prices)
I'd be happy with:
USB Wirnelss N $20
USB  BLuetooth $15
USB exernal DVDRW $59
$200 (250 max) Mac Mini G4
Morphos $150
$444 total. You can double or triple the costs of the apple parts in relation to the parts I listed.
$600 if you take into consideratin apple's expensive parts. A bit more depending on what you paid for the G4 in the first place...

But this stuff ain't rare..

It's the 1.5GHz variant with double the VRAM. "Rare" might be too strong, but it's definitely less common. ~$300 for the Mac, ~$200 for MorphOS, plus a "free" Mighty Mouse. I think it's a fair price.

Guy wants 500 bucks or what ever he can get. The MOS license is like what, 200 bucks? It's a fair sale, especially if you can get the guy to bump a 100 bucks off the price, if somebody wants to pay 500 for it, cool. Thats how it works.

[Crom00]

Oooohhh didn't know the Morphos license was $200.
Mac hardware can get costly. Try replacing a powerbook screen sometime.

This system would do well on ebay with some nice shots. Screen shots of bot the cool morphos and any classic Amiga software  running on this.

If I have been out of the scene and saw an Ebay acution like that I'd be tempted some.

if you know of somebody selling a screen for a 12" 867MHz powerbook let me know.

also, 150 euros for MOS license. (203.04 US dollars as of, well, right now when I posted this)

The mini is not rare, but the 1.5ghz CPU more or less is.

[Gulliver]

Yes, it is not so rare.

Easy...

$400 for the mini
$220 for the MorphOS license
$80 for the mighty mouse
About $50 for the OS X Tiger restore discs.

Ok, so "less common" then.
