Hey guys,
I'm planning on getting my first MAC; a MacBook Pro 15. Now, even though I admit the machines are worth its price, I think going refurbished could be beneficial in my pocket pocket (I have also heard that refurbished are even better machines). However, my concern is that I will get a 2010 machine (that's what they have at their store for now) and I wonder if the computer, even though it could save me as much as $600, isn't as powerful as the new ones making it a not-so-good purchase.
What do you guys think? Here's an example refurbished they have: Refurbished MacBook Pro 2.53GHz Intel Core i5 - Apple Store (U.S.).
I plan to use the laptop for work (I'm a web/graphic designer planning to work with video and on the go [has to be a top computer I can take anywhere so I can work on everything I need]).
Thanks! ;D
