There is no way around it, Apple Macbooks are Expensive! Even with the nifty features, in today's tough economic times it is hard to not only come up with the money to purchase one but also to get yourself to buy one.
The laptop is an excellent piece of technology don't get me wrong but the price point Apple puts on their Macbook, Macbook Pro and Macbook Air is difficult for some people to afford.
If that is the case, then buying a used Macbook makes good sense. Think of it as buying a new car. As soon as you drive it off the lot it depreciates and for every day you own it it depreciates even more. If you were to buy a brand new Macbook and tried to sell it in the parking lot ( still in the box unopened ) I guarantee you would not get what you just paid for it 10 minutes ago.
A MacBook is a great investment though as they do tend to hold their value more then other comparable PC's.
