[ale] OT: does anyone know a good source for Mac parts

[Richard Faulkner]

Ebay would be my first choice but Google may yield other options.  But,
if you're willing to spend $200 for a mainboard (maybe more) why not
just buy a replacement Mac?  Why not install OS X on a VM over Linux
(which is what I'm likely to do as I'm likely going to need the services
of an Intel based Mac but don't want to buy one -- especially when I
have so much hardware already!)

I have a late 2006 Intel Core Duo 1.66 GHz Mac Mini system that needs a
replacement logic board (Motherboard)

It powers on but doesn't chime or display any video, I've done all the
troubleshooting and have determined that it's either the logic board or
the Intel Core Duo T2400 CPU that is installed.

I'd ideally like to get a replacement logic board for around 200
dollars. I've been trying to go the ebay route with no luck.

Does anyone have a good source for mac parts that they can share with
me?
