OT: WTB Mac Mini or Apple Computer that can run Safari Browser

[Kinetic]

I'm in desperate need of a mac mini or apple computer of some sort that can run Safari web browser.

I need it for some testing for some software that needs to support every kind of browser on all sorts of machines, and I have no access at all to apples.

Let me know if you have a spare apple computer sitting around somewhere that you'd like to get rid of.

Also if you want it back, I really only need it for about a month.

Thanks so much guys =)

(btw I don't have the budget to get a new system, I lost my wallet in my reeftank)

If you move the rocks around in the tank, I suspect you'll find it Art I can't think of any critter that would eat it that quick....that would be a resident of any of our reef tanks :lol:

I may know some one. You may need to get a power supply for it though. I'll call him tomorrow and PM you later about it.

lol, I should look a bit harder for that wallet =) but damn my flame angel eats everything! he might've gotten it

But yes, I can get my own power supply etc. Let me know, thanks a million!

Art,

Check out using VMWare... you can run basically any x86 OS on your existing system and do all the testing in the world by creating virtual machines and networking them within the same system. Its not as complicated as it sounds, and you can really stretch your development and test $$$.

I use vmware at work, but I didnt know it supports OS X?

I will research into vmware and os x.

thanks for the heads up =) I think I just started assuming vmware didn't support osx. =P

I have one art. 17 inch powerbook g4 slight screen goobies and doesn't run on a battery. If you need it, make me an offer.

:lol: Guess I'm still half asleep, I read your post as "It runs on Gobies:

 

[MrMikeB]

I have ran os X on vm but I am not sure its officially supported or not. Good luck!

 

[Kinetic]

thanks everyone, you guys are awesome!

I'll let you know =)
