used mac mini (not DELL!) - thoughts on price? - decay - 04-08-2009
seems like a good deal to me, compared to the Microcenter unit with lesser specs (RAM, HD)
Mac Mini 2.0GHZ
Intel 2GHZ C2D
Upgraded to 160GB Hard Drive
2GB Ram
Superdrive
Bluetooth
Comes with Restore disks and Office 2004
$400 shipped

Yeah not bad. The key points are the Core 2 Duo, and 2 GHz is good. The rest add value but I wouldn't buy anything older than that base logic board/processor configuration.

Pretty solid deal. I'd personally rather spend the extra couple hundred to get one of the newer models, but that's just me.

I'd prefer new with warranty and ability to return DOA w/no questions asked.
I also don't like dealing with private parties unless we are face-to-face. But I'm one of those people who think most people shipping used stuff are trying to cheat me.
