    Is this the previous generation with Firewire (which they should never omit)?

    This is a deal.
    Another companies sells same spec as this for more than $1000.

    This looks previous one. So comes with FireWire which has been omitted on new model.

    This is actually a very good laptop for $750. I almost bought one but instead went for the new MacBook for $900 after rebates.

    This is a refurbished item. Micro Center sells this model for $699.99 brand new. I guess, "you pays your money and takes your chances"! Wink

    #6, the thing from MC is $1000, then a rebate, then hopefully it will finally cost $800 AR.

    Very good deal, no wonder it is OOS.

    I would guess that there are a fair number of these that hit the refurbs from people that had just bought them but wanted the new Mac Book. So they should be in excellent condition - if they come back in stock.

    Every Apple refurb I've ever seen has been indistinguishable from new. Same warranty, same everything.

    And if any tard out there wants to show me a comparable windows laptop for "half the cost", I'll be here waiting.

    #7, The Macbook you are referring to is not the same model. I'm new here so I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post the direct link but I'm referring to Mfr Part #: MC240LL/A. The one you are referring to is Mfr Part #: MC207LL/A, the "new" macbook white. I purchased the MC240LL/A two weeks ago when there was an additional $100 rebate.

    #13, are you still alive? I thought you'd kill yourself due to your insanity. By the way is your home country still the same way as it was shown on Borat?
