What do you guys think of this potential trade on craigslist?

"Specs:
Mac Mini upgraded to 2.33GHz Core2 Duo
3GB RAM in dual channel mode (2x2GB sticks - Mini only will recognize 3GB)
80GB 7200RPM HDD (Apple only ships slower 5400RPM drives)
Superdrive
Bluetooth/Airport Extreme
Apple Aluminum Keyboard
Original Box, DVI->VGA, Front Row Remote

Looking to trade for a Macbook - Either a 2+GHz Core Duo or 1.83GHz Core 2 duo. RAM and HDD size not important. Write me...let's work something out. This system's quicker than a 2.5GHz G5 dual and as fast as a Macbook Pro 2.33."
-------------------------------------------------------
I have a 2 GHz Core Duo (not Core2) superdrive white Macbook that's out of warranty that I can basically return to stock config (right now it has 2 gigs of RAM and a 250 gig drive).

For the most part, it just stays in my study, attached to an external keyboard, trackball and 22" monitor.

Looks like this would be a pretty significant upgrade for me, but I don't know.

I would do it.

definite speed gain for mini pinkoos & micro pinkoos, plus you've already got the "extras" ready and waiting...

[Jimmypoo]

How do you know it isn't "liberated?"

I doubt a maxxed out machine like that is stolen.

And I wonder about it taking 3GB of RAM--Maybe if it was upgraded from a C2D mini. I'd definitely check on that.

Yeah, if you need that machine and don't need the MacBook, that's definitely a good trade.

I did the trade. I'll post details later or in another thread.

It's a pretty sweet little machine to say the least!
