Dropped by Costco on my way home tonight and noticed someone cabling a Mac mini to a shelf. If you want to get a Mac mini classic (G4) bundle, head to Costco. $700 gets you a mini, keyboard/mouse (wireless I think), and 3 year AppleCare.
At first I thought it might be an Intel-based Mac mini (maybe a duo). If you need a spare Mac to tuck away as a media box, this might be a good bundle.

Interesting.. at my Costco (in San Luis Obispo, CA) they had the 20" iMac G5 with Apple Care (standard keyboard & Mighty Mouse) for $1454.
Apple must be clearing stuff out through Costco
Nick: Yep, I saw an iMac G5 at my local Costco about 2 or 3 weeks ago too. I keep hoping Costco will start carrying OS X software too: Adobe Elements 4 for OS X alongside the version for Windows XP, for example. Perhaps, OS X users should start an email writing campaign to Costco :-)
And here's a link to one person's experience getting a Mini for 'free'. http://lowendmac.com/menagh/05/1215.html
