FS: 1.42Ghz Mac Mini
« on: January 13, 2022, 06:11:32 AM »
For sale is my Mac Mini with 1.42Ghz processor. The machine is in good condition and comes from a smoke free home. Until recently it's been used as a music server, for Sketchup work and some old games. Overall bright white plastics, which a bit rare these days, with only minor usual wear surface scuffs to the top. The aluminium enclosure is in very good condition, no gouges or dents on the bottom as you'd usually find with machines that have been openend.

The machine has been upgraded to 1GB RAM and includes the ATI Radeon 32MB graphics for this unit as well as the standard 80GB HDD. The machine also has the standard Combo optical drive. While I upgraded the RAM I also applied new thermal paste to the CPU heatsink. The machine is dust free inside and out.

As part of this sale I'm including my little USB2/FIREWIRE 400 external drive enclosure, with 2.5 inch Hitachi Travelstar 60GB 7200rpm drive and cable.

Included is the original power supply, also bright white with the usual minor surface scuffs.

The machine has a fresh install of 10.4 Tiger (no account has been set up yet) so the purchaser will need to upgrade to 10.4.11 via Software update. I will say this machine makes for an excellent fast OS 9 machine as well. I will include a DVD-RW disc with 10.4 installer on as well.

No wifi on this unit.

Item will be very well packaged and boxed up for posting. UK shipping only via Royal Mail tracked 48hrs, I'll consider shipping to EU mainland as well, please ask.

I'm asking £85 excl. of postage as this is what it all cost me. Drive and enclosure + Mini go together. Paypal payment please. You can collect from me as well near Glastonbury, Somerset if you want as well...

Please PM or reply direct here.

Hi Jacques

That's really a very well preserved Mac mini you've got there.
Is it still up for sale?

Hello, yes it is.

I've not advertised it elsewhere yet and will keep it on here for a bit to see if any Mac enthusiasts would like first offer.

I need the space now before this gets damaged so £60 + postage gets you the Mini. Shipping as  above, but my preference is for UK shipping. Contact me for elsewhere.
