[QUOTE="carolineUK, post: 393548, member: 31166"] [b]dont scrimp on a mac![/b] hi, firstly, i wouldnt touch a second hand ibook. if your paying 500 for it second hand then, reallly that is a rip off. no its NOT worth it either. how do you know how badly it has been treated! and dont ever scrimp and save and look for 'cheap' macs. you wont find one!! macs are more dearer than the normal PC and- if your having doubt abt price etc- dont get one if your not sure. if in doubt- leave it out.! look- i was just out of uni when i brought my first ibook. it was £850 quite a few years ago- and id always worked on them so i wanted my own. i worked for it and payed cash for it- so i got it a tad cheaper and some stuff thrown in to! its a few yrs old now and still going strong as the day i got it. you get what you pay for to. bascially, with a new mac, you get a years warranty so should anything go wrong- you can take it back. id steer well away from that second hand one.
