Reading the title of this post, it feels like someone forgot there was a G4 Mac mini too 😀
Speaking of, this is really a price check post. How much do you think this old one I have might be worth?
1.25 GHz G4, 512 MB of RAM, 40 GB Hard Drive, Power cable and brick included. Boots up and runs great. Well, great for a G4. Clean install of Leopard.
I have my existing "$20 Old Mac" post, should I just add this Mac to that post? Or might this be worth more? |

... it's probably a $50 Mac here and $100 on eBay |

Both of those prices seem shockingly high |

Well I think it’s because on these machines you can run Mac Os 9… which is great |

Well I think it’s because on these machines you can run Mac Os 9… which is great ..and some sort of Amiga OS derivative I‘ve heard, therefore they apparently are popular in that community as well. |

Imho, the PS is probably worth as much as the actual Mini. |

I've got two of the later 1.5GHz 1GB ones, and still use them regularly. One is configured to run Tiger+Classic, and the other multi-boots into 9.2.2, Sorbet Leopard and Snow Leopard Beta -- just because it can. Spends most of its time in 9.2.2 to test/run stuff that requires real OS 9 and a GPU.
Got both of mine for free around 10 years ago though, so can't help with pricing. |
