(Mods- if you wish to move this to a more appropriate group, I'm fine with it. I put it here because it was about minis.)

So I'm contemplating replacing the motherboard of my 2011 Mini with an i7 version for the extra cores. So I'm on a website, and find a 2.3 Ghz mobo for $950, but the same people sell a Mini with 1TB HD for... $275. Laughed myself silly over that. I could buy 3 of the complete machines for the price of just a mobo.

I'm sure those mobos are hot movers. :rolleyes:
