[QUOTE="Ember1205, post: 1718186, member: 374272"] Personally, I bought a used iMac Retina 27" off of eBay. Got what I wanted at a price that was acceptable, and it's still under Apple warranty (which gives me the option to add AppleCare). if you go with the Retina models, understand the specs. What I found out is that generally, the first gen Retina (late 2014) was actually better equipped than the newest generation in terms of power. The newer model can drive an external hi-res monitor while also using the in-built display. I don't care - doesn't help me. Apple Refurbished definitely allows you to bring the price down a bit off of new retail, but not enough to make it worth it to NOT buy a quality used computer (IMHO). [/QUOTE]
