[QUOTE="edokid, post: 794230, member: 259418"] Thanks everyone. The problem with eBay is the shipping to Canada is brutal like $150 in a lot of cases which makes it not worth it. I'm looking at a few options, right now the best deal I've found on craigslist is: $500 cad for 1.8Ghz single processor, 160gb and 2gb ram... I'm not super cheap I know it's a decent price, it's just annoying how a PC is so much cheaper. My biggest concern is just that it might not do what I want, since ironically all the other systems are PCs so this would be the only Mac on the entire network. Just afraid to get it then find out it can't do certain things I need. I might just partition my MacBook and install server trial there just to play around with it and get a feel. [/QUOTE]
