Hi Guys and Gals....
I used to be quite the regular on these boards but now mostly read the new headlines. I am posting to try and help a film maker friend of mine sell her editing set up. She got it about a year and a half ago and it's pretty sweet: a Dual 2.7 G5 (liquid cooled) with a gig of RAM and a 20" Apple cinema display. It also includes JBL creature speakers. The Mac, except for the RAM, is exactly like it ships from Apple.
Now, we don't have a clear idea of how much the set up is worth... I was thinking in the 2200-2400 range? I took into account the Apple Care, which is still good for another year and a half.
And here's another thing: my friend is not really like us: people who barter and trade on the internets and use PayPal and FedEx, and all that jazz. She prefers to sell it in person, for cash. (We're in Minneapolis). She is willing to throw in the desk the Mac sits on (I've seen the desk: typical IKEA desk, but pretty nice). So preferably, she would like to sell it locally. So, you Minneapolis people: are you interested?
But, knowing how these things work, I also told her we may have to sell it to someone outside Minneapolis. In that case, we can use my PayPal and Fed Ex account.
What do you peoples think of the price? My friend (okay, her nickname is Ginger) is moving to a new apartment and no longer needs the Mac since her movie project is finished and wants to sell it.
I know I haven't been around much lately, but I've sold a couple of Macs and a Canon GL2 on MacRumors before... oh yeah: here's a link to specs:

And a couple of pics I took yesterday:
