PC World (UK) - Selling Mac Mini G4 models at clearance prices!

A heads up to all the UK Macrumor crew. PC World stores (very common throughout the UK) are offloading all the PPC G4 Mac Mini's. These are not on the website and are being sold on a store to store basis as "manager's special's". Now normally this would mean avoid like the plague but these are very good discounts indeed;

1.25 combo model £170
1.42 combo model £200
1.42 Superdrive model £240

Most people are finding that these are the "silent upgrade" models ie. 1.33 and 1.5ghz respectively and, in my case, the Superdrive model was a 1.5ghz with the 64mb video ram. These were retailing for £500 so it is a bit of a steal in my opinion. And, before anyone asks , these are the G4 MODELS NOT THE INTEL MODELS.

This has been running for a week so supplies are truly limited but shop around.

The middle and top range ones both have wireless and bluetooth. Both models are also the 1.5ghz, 64mb ram video card "silent upgrade" ones. The one I purchased was a week 47 model.

Supplies are running out guys as this has been going on all week. The only way to get one is to go to a store and pester the salesperson to go and look out the back for any left. Even the display models are being sold with a huge discount. Talk to the manager and strike a deal. Someone I know purchased a standard 1.25ghz (though it turned out to be a 1.33ghz upgrade model) model ex-demo that had a few marks on the outer casing and needed a bit of a clean for £99!!. This included the power lead and discs!!.

There are bargains out there if you haggle.

In fact the previous poster is right - this started early last week and many people have snapped all the stock up to subsequently ebay the spare ones. As of yesterday though some stores did have one or two left....
