[QUOTE="nathan430, post: 1364439, member: 236655"] Hi all, the logic board in my 08 macbook(white) failed about a week ago and i have been trying to decide what to do. I could really use some advice! My local mac repair shop estimated that a repair to the hardware would be about 500. I am skeptical about this option because I feel like a repaired, older logic board wont last too much longer. They also offered me 100 bucks it, which I could apply towards a $750 refurbished 09 macbook, but who knows how long that will last/ what kind of hardware/battery issues it might have. Other options are to let apple replace the board or to suck it up and purchase a new computer. So, is my logic board worth repairing/replacing? are refurbished computers a good investment? Thanks, Nathan [/QUOTE]
