What do you really want to buy, a MBAir, a MacPro or iMac.
A Mac for 400 USD that plays Minecraft. A 2007 iMac can do that as far as I have seen.

A Mac Pro!? Please tell me he meant MBP, no way you could get a Mac Pro for $450 that didn't need some major repairs/upgrades.
Lol I screwed up my post,
I need a MacBook air for school and a msc pro and iMac because I need two comPuters at home.

You have $1300, so you can buy:
An old and slow iMac/MacPro for $400, which even hard to find at that price point, unless it's very old or not working normally
An old Macbook for another $400 which is even slower than the iMac.
OR ...
A new shiny 13" 2012 MBA which much faster than both, portable, plays MineCraft just fine. And for the remaining money, you can get external HDD for storage expansion/backup, or even a decent 21" display for extra workspace.
How about that? Have you think it over?
