Hi All,

Just now, I have found a Late 2006 iMac for £60 as the minimum bid. It comes with all the original extras, mouse, keyboard, remote, etc. It even comes with the original restore discs, and a retail version of Snow Leopard. The whole iMac is in excellent condition, not a lot of scratches on it. I would use it for very light use, e.g small photo & video editing, and a very little bit of gaming (not CPU or GPU intensive)

Should I bid on it? Or should I keep looking for other ones? I think that the minimum bid of £60 is an absolute bargain for this.

Thanks, Alex
 
I would definitely be looking for something a little newer. My older iMac Mid 2007 with an SSD and 6 GB RAM is starting to get a little slow in the tooth. And that is with upgrades. I would save up some money and look for something a little newer. It will be fine for light use, but will be slow for video editing and gaming. Large photo files will be slow as well.

Okay thank you! :)
