I got a new desktop computer so I want to sell my year-old Mac Mini. It's got the Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz CPU, 4 GB RAM, nVidia GeForce 9400M with 256MB RAM and a 120 GB HDD. The current version of the Mac Mini is the same except that it has a 2.26 GHz CPU, 2 GB RAM (4 GB is a 135,000 won upgrade, or you can do it yourself but it's a hassle), and a 160 GB HD. The base model of the new version costs 850,000 won or 985,000 won with the RAM upgrade. Of course, my computer is 12 months old and a new computer is...well, new. The computer is functionally and cosmetically perfect except for some scratches and scuffs on the bottom and bent plastic latches where I wrestled to get the case open (invisible unless you hold the computer upside-down). I will include a wired keyboard and wireless mouse if you need them. They aren't great, but they get the job done.

It comes with a fresh install of OS X Snow Leopard and the original retail disk. It is easy to dual boot Windows on this computer, if you so desire. I can also put Linux XBMC on a separate partition if you want to use it as a media center. It works great as a media center connected to an HDTV with XBMC. It has a built-in IR receiver and the graphics card supports hardware video acceleration in Linux (not OS X) so it can handle any 1080p file you throw at it in XBMC. You can't run 3 operating systems on this machine, however. Or, technically it may be possible, but I was never able to get it working. If you want OS X, then you have to choose between Windows and Linux (XBMC) as the second OS.

If you are interested, e-mail me at [email protected] or PM me here at Dave's. I'm not using this computer at all any more, so I will consider all reasonable offers. I originally posted this listing about 2.5 months ago but decided to keep the computer then. Now I definitely want to sell it, so I have updated the original listing (I hate it when people repost the same thing over and over again ).

Just bumping this thread because I had decided not to sell the Mac Mini but now I don't need it any more. It is once again for sale! The original posting has been edited, so if you are interested in buying the computer, check it out.
