I'll be selling my iMac shortly, I'm having to use a dell :( PC for work now :( :(

Spec wise it's an intel core duo 2.4ghz, 4GB RAM, 320GB HDD and is the 24" uber IPS display!  1920X1200 res, not the usual 1920X1080 cheap tv panel jobbies.

Its running snow leopard which will be included, comes boxed as new, original cds, and manuals etc.  It can also be supplied running dual boot windows vista home premium.  I bought windows especially for the mac so I guess it can go with it.  If not I can sell it separately.  Runs vista better than any PC ive come accross, zero driver issues and NO crashes!!

Its a very fast machine, even by today's standards, shame I can no longer use it for work due to our crappy arse OLD CAD software :(

It has been a perfect machine all the time I've had it, I've only carried out one repair, which was my own doing.  I cut a tiny thin cable while putting the case back together after cleaning it, it's the cable for the temperature sensor.  It has been soldered properly and wrapped.  This was about 6 months ago and has caused absolutely no issues.

The screen has a couple of yellow tinted areas, only visible in some lights, in some cases, on certain backgrounds.  Apparently It can be caused by dust behind the glass.  After the cable incident I refused to take it apart to clean it again.  The yellow marks are not noticeable but wanted to mention it anyway, full discloseure and all that.

Price wise Im not sure, I've seen them actually sell on ebay for £500 in this spec, with the yellow marks, the repair etc, I'd probably ask £450.  I'd be happier doing a deal with one of you though, I'd be prepared to knock a bit off :)

Even if you dont necessarilly need the mac for the maccy goodness, it runs windows better than anything other home computer!!!

c'mon, let me feel the fibre of your fabric :)

So... Very... Tempting... Must... Save... For holiday! (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/sad.gif)

Pah, save later! I do you good price!

any interest from anyone ?

I've still got this or sale, I never did get round to putting it on eBay. The hard drive started making some odd noises so it's been replaced with a brand new western digital 160gb 7200rpm drive which will have a years warranty from WD. I'll drop the price a bit as it was a 320gb drive originally. This one is WAY quicker though!!!  

Any takers?  Andy??

hmmm ...
how old is it..?
and what goodies come with it ,keyboard,mouse type,remote

might consider it over the current mac mini..(http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/chiny.gif)

It's 3 1/2 years old art, it'll come with a remote and the magic mouse (which I hardly used as I bought a 9 button mouse for work). They keyboard is currently being used but I could be persuaded to part with it for a little towards a new one.  

It's not got a mark on the casing anywhere, works faultlessly and even has e original cardboard box with all the foam packaging so it can be transported safely.

Come on....... You know you want it.... Feel free to pm me an offer, it couldn't hurt!

I have also got a brand new apple wireless keyboard that I could throw in for £50, cost me £75 a few weeks back so that could be a nice option :)

C'mon art. You know you want it :)

as much as im impressed with it...(http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/cool.gif)

my lad has last years 24'' imac,(http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/beavisnbutthead.gif)

i would just be too close to the thing to use it,

so ...im out..(http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/down.gif)

Thanks for letting me know :)

Anyone else before I eBay it away???

it's a no from me I'm afraid, I'm either about to haemorrhage a shed load of cash on a new slr or a new tv, plus all the bits on the Camaro.

Ahhhh nuts...... You sure, I do you super country price :). What will you edit your new pics on!!!!!

Very tempting, especially at a super country price! As much as I'd love one, I got my MBP for photo editing, and I'd like to upgrade my SLR and I'd like go to the states, and I'd like to do the car up... etc etc etc  (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/sad.gif)

offer him 450 andy...(http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/tongue.gif)

Re re bump.....

£250... I'm kidding

Sorry fella, I really have no spare cash at the moment. Add to that I dunno what I would really do with it.

Must be a less painless way of flogging it without going down the eBay route? Local rag?

I could try I guess, got no idea where to start. One of those cash for gadgets type places have offered £370 so any more than that would be an epic win :)

You tried CEX?

Just over a year on and the saga of Edge selling a Mac is over... (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/tongue.gif)
