[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1614991, member: 56379"] I think that you answered the question. Not a great idea to spend $920 on a busted computer when another one can be had for $1100. Yes...spending $920 is less than $1100. But the #1 reason is...who really knows if EVERY problem with the liquid damaged computer will REALLY be solved with the $920 that is spent. Maybe 6 months laster something else pops up. And if you get a refurb....maybe it comes with a warranty. Although...when someone calls a computer they're selling a refurb (individual or business)...I'm pretty skeptical exactly what their refurb. process is. With Apple refurbs...everything is like new...and Apple gives you 12 months of automatic Applecare to back it up.:) - Nick p.s. Plus like chscag mentioned. If you sell the busted computer...whatever you sell it for can offset some of the $1100 cost!:) [/QUOTE]
