Hi,

I am looking to sell my PowerMac G5 Dual 2.5Ghz. Various aspects of the machine been *upgraded* from stock.

This is the current spec of it:

PowerMac G5 Dual 2.5Ghz
160GB hard drive - there's a possibilty that I MAY be able to fit an additional 80GB Hard drive as a bonus, but I can't guarantee it.
*2.5GB RAM*
*6800 Ultra Video Card*
*Additional 5 USB Ports* Belkin PCI Card
*Bluetooth Dongle* (I've currently got it connected to the internal USB port on the Belkin PCI card above
*Region-Free Dual Layer Superdrive*

The Mac is in a very good condition - just a few very light scratches on the removable side panel and hasn't missed a beat since I've owned it.

The machine will come with a fresh install of Leopard 10.5.6 on it for you.

I've checked a few recent Ebay UK auctions and given what G5s of a lower spec are going for on there - and the upgraded nature of this Mac - I'm looking for £650 for this machine, and due to its weight would prefer collection from Norwich, Norfolk.

If you have any questions then please feel free to PM me and I will do my best to answer them for you.

Thanks for looking,

Matthew

Too high a price? :-(

I figured Ebay was a good guide as to what people where paying.

I don't know about the price - my G5 Quad places me outside of your likely buyer group.

However, you are limiting your scope by specifying a single city in the UK. If you have the original box, then I suggest you post your willingness to ship elsewhere in the UK. Pictures are also nice, including an inside one showing the extra hardware.
