Rating: 5/5 An adequately fast, responsive machine with a small footprint. August 17, 2021 Apple Mac mini (2010) 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo - Used, Excellent condition from MacSales.com I had one of the earliest Mac Minis for at least 12 years; while I was satisfied with it generally, this one is well beyond in every respect. Even with an older version of Photoshop Elements, as a backup machine, it is beyond adequate! And the price I paid was incredibly reasonable. Images below; © A. Macarthur G.

Rating: 5/5 Great deal on a Mini October 13, 2017 I've been wanting to get a mini and use it to store and share on my home network the thousands of photos and itunes songs and get them off my laptop. This was too good a deal to pass up. Loaded with latest OS and ready for me to register and use out of the box. Looks practically brand new! Looking forward to purchasing another for professional studio (music), just a higher end one!

Rating: 4/5 Set up a friend with this used Mac. July 25, 2016 It came in great shape, nothing wrong with it at all. I uploaded the newest OS and set up my friend who was still using a G5 tower! I have purchased used Macs before from other companies and while nobody gave me a bad experience, Other World stepped up to the plate when the original used computer I ordered was no longer available, they called and set me up with this one. Other places would have just sent an impersonal e-mail.

Rating: 5/5 Sweet deal April 30, 2016 I needed to update my 07' Mac mini media machine to stream videos, but keep my FireWire peripherals. The gently used Mac mini I bought from OWC was priced right, has the features I need and is in excellent condition. I can now run a modern OSX and keep my legacy peripherals. OWC has never disappointed.
