A friend of mine is selling his Mac mini. It's an original 1.25 GHz G4, and he wants $250 (and is throwing in a Elgato EyeHome Elgato Systems ).

I trust him not to have damaged the thing (so it's worth a little $$$ just knowing it wasn't abused as compared to buying on eBay).

Thoughts?

UPDATE: That price includes an Apple keyboard and mouse.

Awesome price. Snatch it up.

Even without the EyeHome, he'd get $350 for it easy on eBay or CraigsList.

No no no... your supposed to say "that hunk of junk... motherboard problems like crazy, hard drives that burn up after a few months and a DVD burner that eats DVD... but hey, I'll buy it from you for that price."



I looked around eBay and they seem to be going for a little more, so I thought it was a good deal... and the keyboard and mouse was the icing on the cake.
