About the Warranty thru DELL:
It has FULL 1yr WARRANTY thru Dell itself - the warranty is as good as new ones. There is NO cosmetic issue with this one. Refurbished ones from Dell are USUALLY cancelled orders. Installing OS X on this DOES NOT VOID the WARRANTY. You could just remove your Hard drive before you send it to dell for repair - I dont want Dell techs looking at my private data and ALWAYS remove the hard drive before sending it in to repair. Dell themselves suggest this. The warranty is for hardware and hence they dont care what you install on it.
NO TRADES, NO LOW BALLERS, NO shipping to Nigeria. I do ship within USA if paid by paypal (additional fees apply).

TROUBLESHOOTING:
1.) I did a software update and now my Mini screen is frozen or it boots into screen with lines or wont boot at all. What do I do?
OPTION 1: Updating 10.5.7 / 10.5.8 directly will cause problems. Look here for help: http://www.mydellmini.com/forum/mac-os-x/7791-mac-osx-10-5-7-here-45.html
Look at the last page, there is a way to get it working fine.
1. I powered down and rebooted into safe mode (basically hit "-" and the enter "-x")
2. This brought me to the safe mode of the desktop
3. I ran theDellEI 1.2a5 with the settings for :
"reinstall Chameleon 2.0RC1...."
"Reinstall Dell Mini 9 extensions"
"Hide DellEFI files"
4. Hit Install and follow through till it rebooted
5. It was all good after that..
Here is the link to get DellEFi 1.2a5 ---http://mydellmini.googlecode.com/files/DellEFI1.2a5.zip
OPTION 2:
Reboot with safe mode ( -x option at boot or Hold down the CTRL screen at the Darwin loader)
Run DellEFI 1.2a5 (see link above) . when done, choose "NO" so you dont reboot. run dell efi again, choose "custom installation" and check the box which says "remove custom dsdt.aml file" , when finished choose "NO" so you dont reboot, run dell efi again, and now install again (this will regenerate the custom dsdt.aml file" after this you can reboot.OPTION 3:
Unable to boot into safe mode: Look here:http://dellefi.mechdrew.com/
