Mac Mini spec help

I have seen this spec for sale online but how does it compare to a new Mac Mini,

1.66ghz core duo
512mb ddr2 ram
60gb hard drive
combo drive
bluetooth module
airport module
osx tiger
front row
apple remote
dvi adaptor

£320?

its expensive for that price and spec.. but its way down on newer model graphics alone

theo ne you listed is approx £220 £250 tops usually with 2gb ram included.

2 gb memory is common and so is larger hard drive..
cpu can be upgraded as well but i would check the exact cpu in that one "online"

That's too expensive.

Waaay too expensive, you're looking at under £200 for that, £170ish would do.

Can only repeat what the others have said, haggle in at £150 to have some bantering room!

To give you a point of reference I sold my Mac mini back in August 2007 for £330 and that was a 1.66 Core Duo with 1GB RAM. And that was two years ago.

Whilst I agree that it's over priced it would probably go for more than those prices ... I sold my old G4 Mac Mini (1.42GHz/512MB/80GB + wifi + bt) for just over £200 three or four months ago. I'd have thought that that spec would be around £250.

+!

With a poor GPU and slow CPU. Avoid

If you want to estimate how much a Mac is worth, use www.mac2sell.net

I've found it to be very accurate when selling before.
