Feeler: iMac 20" Intel 2.0 Ghz

macaddicted · Aug 24, 2006, 12:38 AM

Greetings,

I've just bought a MacBook Pro so I no longer need my iMac. I originally purchased the iMac because it cost less and had a bigger screen than the MacBook Pros. But I am finding that I don't use it nearly as often as I used my old G4 laptop.

So back I go to portables. I wanted to get a sense for how much it was worth. It's the standard configuration: 250 GB hard drive, X1600 w/128MB VRAM. I have upgraded the memory to 2GB from the original 512MB.

It's not that old, purchased this year. I am thinking around $1200. Your opinion?

I think that is a really fair price with the memory upgrade and all. If I had the money right now I would pay it.

i think that it will sell very fast at that price

Great price. Anyone looking for an iMac should jump on this deal.

Um, maybe I'm thinking a little too low?

Thanks for the replies.

If you are still interested let me know. Does it have any issues? Cosmetic/hardware/software? Pictures? If so email me at idoccurt@bellsouth.net

I think you could get at least $1500 out of it.
I maxed mine out at Apple.com when I got it, with the edu discount it was $2207 + shipping

2Ghz
2GB RAM
500GB HDD
256 VRAM

It depends whether he added Apple RAM or not, as well...

I didn't. But I haven't had any problems with kernal panics.
