People still use ebay? Confusedlap:

They did but now they're going to stop since you said that. Picked a whole Cube with PS for
like $50 a few weeks ago, just needed the PS. Sure I hate some of their stinking rules but
when people are willing to pay $17 for one Lego Mini Figure it's just fine.

I don't think you are saving that much over a genuine Mini:

$150 nettop
10 shipping
75 hdd
35 dvd
20 wireless card
25 memory
________
$256 total
and you haven't included an IR controller.

For another $200 you can pick up a 2.0ghz refurb Mac Mini and not put up with the kludgey hackintosh.
