Does anybody have any idea what the yearly depreciation rate of a mac is? I know that pc's are around 50% per year, but I've heard that macs hold their value substantially longer than pcs.
Thanks!
Thanks!
I am not sure what you are actually asking.. if you mean purely a resale value percentage decrease, there is no way to name a number. Each model and each configuration of it will be different. For instance, there are some models like the Cube and FlowerPower iMacs that sell for way more than their specs would suggest.mfacey said:Does anybody have any idea what the yearly depreciation rate of a mac is?

Depends on your insurance. Depends on the Mac's specs and the Dell's specs. In any event, you will probably not get enough back to cover buying a similar Mac, all your software, etc.mfacey said:Say for example if my house burns down ( ). Would I get more for a two year old mac (percentage wise) than a Dell of the exact same age from my insurance company?
