Thinking about selling my Mac Mini as I no longer do any web development, and so don't really have any need to keep it. Just wondering what people thought a fair value for it would be, as if it's too low I may just keep it as a future music server.

Specs:
2.26GHz cpu
2GB RAM
120GB HDD

Should add that I have the aluminium bluetooth keyboard, and also a licence for Pixelmator and Coda that I can ship with it.

I'd say 350-ish quid for the mini, 30 quid for the keyboard and 50 quid for the software, assuming the licenses are transferrable. Maybe sell the bundle at 450?

That certainly sounds pretty reasonable as a balance between age of tech and it not being too low to just get turned into a music server. Think I might head off to the For Sale section. Just wanted to sound things out before taking the piss with my pricing ;)

Well I bought my Mac Mini about 18-24 months ago for £400.

It's specs at the time:
1.83GHz core 2 duo
80GB HDD
2GB RAM

It also came with a 24" monitor, a webcam, and a microphone.

Based on this I would say £350 is a bit high for your system.
