I wish...It's only a 15"

The craigslist here in FL is terrible. They try to sell IBOOK CLAMSHELLS FOR $400.

They're like "O ITZ APPLE IT RULZ."

I frequently e-mail people and tell them when they are asking for stupid amounts of money... if they just seem ignorant I try and be nice, but if I can tell they are just trying to take advantage of people then I will not hold anything back

As for good deals I bought my 2.4 C2D imac for $720 NIB

I find you can get good deals from the PC user who got their mac from a friend and knows nothing about them. PC users logic: "You can get windows computer with the same specs for $300. Sounds like a good price to post on craigslist....." Haha.. Got my $200 MacBook from a PC guy....

I've gotten Airs for $700, MacBooks for $300, MBPs for $650 it's a long list.

Where do you get the pro's? I can't seem to find em either. The one time I did run accross one for a good price ($650 with original box and everything!) dad said I had to many macs. Ugh.. Talk about frustration!
