Well here is an example of someone who has succesfully upgraded that Mini with a Core Duo T2600
http://www.macbidouille.com/news/200...duo-a-2-16-ghz
The ebay price for that CPU is about 100USD (Maybe cheaper if you search hard enaugh to find someone selling a notebook with broken display or something like that.) - still expensive in my opinion...

Mid-2007 MacMini was the last one with socketed CPU, 3. Generation and any later ones came with soldered CPUs.
