Got 1000$

seaniscool1 · Nov 29, 2009, 07:42 PM

Well I have 1000 bucks to spend on a notebook, My macbooks logicboard is

So I'm just gonna get another...My question is, Should buy a new 13" macbook(the poly one, not the pro) Or should I buy a slightly used older macbook pro with 15-17" screen?

for $1000 the used pro will probably be quite used... id say go new whitebook or refurb 13" pro.... both are great machines.

Get the Macbook it'll be new and fast as a used pro.
