Mac for iPhone dev

[Siliconslave]

So guys i need a cheap second hand intel mac for iPhone development as its looking less and less likely that a VM is going to cut it full time

Doesn't matter if its a laptop or desktop but whats the cheapest one i can pick up second hand? Being able to upgrade the memory (if not already high) is always a boon... HDD isn't too much of a problem as i'll be useing my NAS

so which ones should i be looking at?

Cheers
Sam

is it only the latest revision of the mini that will run 10.5.5? am i right in thinking that only came out in the last couple of months...

All the mac-minis will run all versions of Leopard. But best to get one made in the last few years that has Intel based architecture tbh.

the iPhone SDK needs the Intel architecture to run unfortunately as theres no cross compiler (yet)

which version of the macbook started using the intel chipset btw?
