Feeler FS/FT: Macbook Core 2 Duo 2GHz / 1GB / 80GB / DL Superdrive

[Ryan T.]

I'm getting a replacement from Apple, so this will be new in sealed retail box.

Anyone want to save a little cash, let me know. I'll be getting it middle of next week.

Edit: Would come with Incase Neoprene sleeve and iSkin keyboard protector.

Edit #2: Would maybe consider a trade for a Macbook Pro Model. Would have to be "as new" or "new". Cash could be a consideration.

Trade for a 15" PowerBook G4, 1.5Ghz, 1.5GB, Combo? :D

Only if this was offered a week ago I would have taken up on it. :(

Sorry, if I sell it it will be because I'm going back to Thinkpads.

IBM? Why would you sell a macbook pro to go back to IBM?

First, I apologize if we are thread crapping.

Thinkpads are pretty nice. The X60 weighs approx. 2.69 lbs but granted I tried configuring a Thinkpad X60 to a 2.0Ghz, 2GB Ram, 80GB HD, DL DVD+/- and it came out to near $2,000 even with the student discount and this isn't with the 2.0 C2D either. Ouch.

They are also built very tough and retain their value fairly well but you pay a premium for a nice X60 configured like the 2.0 C2D MB.

Sorry for thread crapping. I would also like to add that my dad uses IBM's and swears by them so they must be good.

whats the warranty on this thing?

[Ryan T.]

It would be a brand new retail boxed computer. So I'm assuming 1 year from when your register it. It's right off the line.

[Ryan T.]

Oh, this would also include an incase neoprene sleeve and iSkin keyboard protector.

Actually I think this is a macbook not a macbook pro.

I corrected him via PM already, but thank you for clarifying for others. This is a 13.3" Macbook, not a MBP.

Ryan,

What do you want for your MB? I'm getting my scholarship money next Monday (the 8th) and I've been thinking about getting a MB or MBP.

The Apple Education discount (accessing it from home) puts your MB at $1199... but I've heard rumors that if I access the Apple Education site from my school's server, I'd save some more. I haven't tried it yet.

I would be interested in saving some $$.

I was hoping for $1200 or so shipped including the sleeve + iSkin keyboard cover. Even if you do have access to the education site, that still saves you $60-$100 in tax, plus $50 worth of accessories.

Let me know if you might be interested.

[Ryan T.]

Oh, and despite what I said earlier, I *may* consider a Macbook Pro if it's in "as new" condition with original box/accessories/warranty. Cash could be used if warranted.

That's not true.

[tsvb]

lemme sell my iMac and I'll snag it up! :)

[Ryan T.]

That's not true.

Thank you, I was fairly certain this wasn't the case unless the school absorbs some of the cost.

Thanks for me too. I actually read that rumor on the board here and thought it sounded fishy... but heck, you never know these days.

That's okay, I understand. No harm no foul :)

[Ryan T.]

Hey guys I think I'm just going to keep it. Thanks for all the offers.

[livingfortoday]

Dang!

[Ryan T.]

Dang!

Sorry!:o I really did want to trade with you, but I just can't swing that kind of cash right now, I'm moving in 2 weeks! Definitely keep in touch if something changes though.
