Default juuuust in case anyone is interested...

I'm selling my 17" MacBook pro with 2+yrs of AppleCare remaining (expires in Sept of 2012, oohhhhhh!). Looking to get $2000 for it, much less than I paid under a year ago.

It's the unibody aluminum version model, anti glare screen 2.8ghz core2duo, 4gb ram, 500gb hdd. 512mb video.

Full specs details in my CL post below. Free shipping anywhere in the US for you guys, too.

macs are ridiculously expensive. Good luck on the sell

EDITED BY SWITCH:

5 - Discussions about what something is worth should be in THE LOUNGE, not in the persons thread. This goes along with number 3. If you disagree with what the person is asking for the item, perhaps it would be best to send them a PM and attempt to bargain with them. Flaming on this will NOT be tolerated and will result in a ban.

thanks for the great comment. they did just get announced, yes. they really aren't much better. the differences are negligible.

the processors only operate at full advertised speed in BURST mode and aren't even quad core. mine runs at the full 2.8ghz ALL THE TIME.

I just spec'd out the comparable macbook pro, price came out to 2698$ with applecare.

get your facts straight before you attack someone and make yourself look like a dipshit.

EDIT: also, show me ANY spec from my macbook to the new ones that is "twice as good", i dare you.

doobie, this kid ^^ is a dipshit.. Almost every post that he makes is borderline moronic. Just do yourself a favor and disregard anything that he says or better yet just set his name to your "ignore" list.

On the flip-side. Macs are overpriced based on the name IMO. They have much better performance than they ever have in the past, but to me it just doesn't justify the price.

GL with your sell bud.

i absolutely agree. some people like macs, some don't. i don't agree with how apple is being run as a company anymore and how they're positioning themselves in the market so i am no longer supporting them or their products. but, for what this machine is, its less than a year old and in perfect condition with warranty for another 2 yrs, etc, decent deal for what it is for the right person.

On a side note I like macs and would love to own one but can't justify the money so for now will stick with my pc. Glws.

Sorry, I had literally JUST finished reading about the new ones on Yahoo when I posted, so I was in the mood. But, still. I was only trying to help the community :\
