Yes I still have a Mac Mini 2006 that's gone through several upgrades. T7400 CPU, internal sata SSD, 4GB of RAM, macmini 2,1 hack to install SL, the Lion.app tweak to install Lion 10.7.5. As this is a headless HTPC it does it's job really well but I'm now looking to get some extra mileage in moving to Yosemite (iTunes+iPhoto library compatibility for iTunes server streaming).
Looking at Unibeast (correct me if I'm wrong) this seems like a no-go as the mini 2006 is 32bit EFI.
So I was thinking of getting a 64bit motherboard that would accept the Intel T7400 and DDR2 RAM. Recover the Superdrive DVD/CS, SSD, RAM and whatever else to make a functional Hackintosh system. Who knows, I might even be surprised with some new bluetooth features!
Any better ideas to get some extra mileage out of an old 2006 mini ?
