Best Mac prices: Refurbished MacBook Pro from $999
When Apple announced and shipped the $1,199 13 inch MacBook Pro earlier this year, my first thought was how much would a refurbished unit sell for? Happily the answer to that question is a very affordable $999, putting a very capable — 2GB RAM, 8X SuperDrive, SD slot and 9400M graphics — portable video editing or graphics editing machine the full meal deal in your hands for under a grand.
For me, however, the sweet spot in this MacBook Pro refurb roundup is the 2.4GHz model. It’s got a 15 inch display and a full on hardware graphics accelerator (9600M), making an exceptional choice for just $1,299.
