    yeah no problem man...it is a great computer

    just think if you really need a MAC? Unless you do a lot of photo/video editing or web development, I'm not sure if you really need to go with Apple here.

    Windows machines are a lot cheaper and easier to work with for every day tasks.

        well yours is refurbished too I suppose

        I just showed you those links to understand if that's the computer we're talking about.

        It was more of a confirmation for me more than anything.

                  Here with retina it would be around £800-900
                  A few hundred for a retina 2013 is impossible.

                      ...and I'm sure you can find it even cheaper

                      this one has a smaller display size though...but it's virtually the same machine

                      800 pounds is a overkill Cashews

                        60-70 for the i7 also, 60-70 for increased screen and another 50 for a reptubale seller (im assmuing he has bought from..)
                        around 800ish seems okay....

                          jakey still don't know I'm not overly concerned about the price as I had a $200 credit expiring. Am just wondering if it's "too much computer" for what I need. I thought it a no brainer since I've had iPhones since 07 and love my iPad 2. I have a 30 day return (I'd have to pay for shipping) so I guess that helps. was hoping to hear from some who had the computer as opposed to what a shitty deal I might or might not have gotten. I appreciate all the feedback though.

                              The one you posted goes for 585, add up the i7, the screen size and a better seller....
                              what do you come to?
                              not 300-400.

                                Casha like I've said earlier you can find them at pawn shops...EZ
                                Online you can find one on Craigslist I bet for 400 or 500...you just gotta be proactive and stay on top of things and grab them as soon as they become available.
                                Many people run into situations were they're willing to unload good stuff for dirt cheap.

                                  Its value isnt 400-500. impossible.
                                  If you find one less than the market value, then it wont be refurbished have a warranty - it will be taking a shot and have risk.
                                  I personally wouldnt have time to go around pawn shops, not my style.

                                    you don't have to go around...you can use your iPhone to call them up, Casha
                                    don't mistake retail price with a bit of a discount with an actual value of the system
