- iMac 27" (2011) 3.1 GHz quad-core i5, 13" MacBook Pro (2011 2.3GHz dual-core i5), iPad2 (32MB, 3G)
I want to get my wife a 17" MacBook Pro to replace her 13" MacBook Pro (Early 2011, 2.3 GHz i5) since she does lots of spreadsheet work and could use the larger screen (I would take her 13" MacBookPro).
I would like to get a refurbished MacBook Pro and was looked at the refurbs on the Apple site. Apple currently has the following items available:
1. Refurbished MacBook Pro 2.53 GHz i5 (April 2010) for 1,719.00
2. Refurbished MacBookk Pro 2.66GHz i7 (April 2010) for 1,869.00
3. Refurbished MacBook Pro 2.8 GHz i7 (April 2010) for 1,899.00
4. Refurbished MacBook Pro 2.3Ghz quad-core i7 (February 2011) for 2,199.00
My wife is not really a power user and would be happy with any of the above. Any recommendations on which one I should get? Is it worth the extra money to get the February 2011 model over the April 2011 models?
