I'll do a full post with all the specs, details and pictures tomorrow at some point.

It's a C2D 1.83GHz, 1GB DDR, 80GB HDD, Combo Drive & comes with OS X 10.5, remote, power cables etc. Very Good Cond.

One went on eBay the other day with no remote and faulty PSU for £330 + £15 delivery, I was thinking of sticking it up on here for £300 which would include next day courier delivery.

Full details incoming tomorrow...

No problem, can't dig it all out now as it is boxed up under our bed and wifey is asleep.

This is the one I was talking about on eBay, exactly the same as mine except mine has the remote with it, and doesn't have wires showing on the PSU.

Not a problem to sell on here as long as all parties are happy that the deal is conducted between themselves and is nothing to do with the forum :)

I have updated my original post with details/pictures.

If you want any more info or pictures please let me know, only happy to give you as much info as you need.

Cheers

Desmo: No problem, totally understand :)

Edit: Forgot to add, the only reason I am selling this is because I have upgraded to a MacBook Pro.

Likewise. Doubt a 'cleaner' specimen would turn up, so it makes sense. You know you want to. :p

Just checking funds, 95% sure this should be ok! Will confirm soon if ok, but pretty sure we'll take it off you if you're happy with that.

Now that it's gone and I know I won't be derailing your sale I'd like to add that I have the following PC for sale. Very similar size to the MAC Mini but running the Atom 330 (1.6Ghz dual core) processor with NVidea 9400 gfx. Boxed as new.

Only a couple of months old and selling as I got bored with the project I was using it for. Perfect for Living/bedroom environment as it uses passive cooling so the only noise is the HDD which is quieter than Sky+/Virgin V+ STBs.

Works perfectly with Windows 7 and Ubuntu though I was using it with XBMC http://xbmc.org/ and thanks to its HDMI output and hardware acceleration it makes the perfect Media Center PC as it is virtually silent and will happily decode h.264 HD content at 1080p - 20mbit

Will be sent out with either Ubuntu 9.04, XBMC or No OS, your preference.
