Physically, the machine is pristine, nothing wrong there from my perspective or the Genius who took a look at it.

The MBA also came with some unexpected extras, such as a nice Incase sleeve (a nicer one than the one people usually buy), and a USB ethernet adapter.

Overall, I couldn't be happier with the purchase. For $950, it was a steal IMO.

Thanks all again.
Congrats on your new machine shootingrubber!

Yes. Between that and some salesmanship, you'll be surprised what you can get the masses to buy into.

Sounds like your friend got a great deal anyway!
My friend is an amateur photographer. He has a lot of nude pics in his portfolio. As per the deal, it's one of those right place at the right time. I paid 1400 for my 2012 air, and his 400 air looks exactly the same.
