DaveGee Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Seems like this could be a great 'sticky' thread for people to post deals on parts and supplies that have been reported to work well (better than average) with OS X. I can start the ball rolling with this one: Part: Motherboard Deal: Intel 975XBX2KR "Bad Axe 2" Mobo $182 Shipped Link: http://forums.slickdeals.net/showthread.ph...30&t=438706 Dave Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40629-hardware-deals/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveGee Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 Another good deal... full credit goes to SlickDeals... I love that site... I've saved so much I'm going broke! Anyway, on with the deal. :pirate2: Item: Seagate 320GB 16MB Peropndicular drive 7200.10 Coupon code: EMC213320GBCUDA (takes $5 off) Final Price: $84.99 shipped Other Highlights: No rebates & Free shipping Lowlights: People in NJ (and other states) gotta pay tax. NewEgg price $89.99 - $5.00 off coupon = $84.99 Link: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16822148140 Remember, if you order more than 1 buy them individually (since shipping is free anyway) and that way you can keep reusing the $5 off coupon for each drive/order.

DaveGee Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 (edited) Nice price ... but I'm glad I didn't wait... I just finished building my box this past friday... Here were my final specs. - E6300 - BadAxe2 - nVidia 7600GT Video Card PCI-E - 2GB DDR800 Corsair RAM (not the uber-highend but still very good ram) - (x2) 320GB Seagate 7200.10 Drives - Samsung? Toshiba?? 18x DVD burner (had this from last year) - Antec P150 Case (nice case btw) - Antec Modular Power Supply I think that sums it up... All together I spent about $900 ... $1000 bucks but then many of those items had rebates so once I get the rebates back it comes out to about $800 for the whole shootin match.... Pretty dern good system for $800 bucks. Had lots of fun Friday... - CPU and Video card delivered FedEx @ noon - Built the box - Installed OSX - Installed Ubuntu - Installed XP Pro - Installed Office XP Got everything triple-booting by 10PM Not bad for not having built my own system since.... since... Well lets just say my last homebuilt had a state of the art 386sx and an mobo with Award BIOS on it....
