Aha... umm... I guess I'm a big honking idiot. I failed to realize how cheap the top of the line macbooks were. $2800 isn't the entry level one either. It's pretty much fully loaded. Even comes with 4gig ram. This includes shipping, but not tax. Of course it's not actually shipping until 3-4 weeks, but still. It was not my intention, nor my friends to post this overpriced. Please forgive me. I'd also like to point out the apple factory refurb page has four 2.6 ghz on sale for $2300 http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals/mac Those posted on apples site have much smaller drives and only two gigs of ram, but they're still a superb deal. I therefore apologize for being a nuisance and suggest if you do want a deal on one you buy it from the refurb page and buy ram through a third party and upgrade it yourself. If you do want to make my friend an offer I supposed you could still email him. I suspect he might take something around $2500-2700, but to be honest I'm not sure what would be considered a fail deal now that I've seen the price on the refurbs and the new models. On a side note, it's amazing how fast these things depreciate in a year. I'm quite certain that's at least $1k less then he paid for it. Still. It's better than the depreciation on a car I guess. My apologies. -Mike On Wed, Jan 14, 2009 at 5:13 PM, Irina irina...@gmail.com wrote: yeah i was thinking the same thing On Wed, Jan 14, 2009 at 2:00 PM, Steve Watkins st...@dvmachine.com wrote: But the new 17 costs $2799 from Apple, so how can he expect to get $3k for it?

fail deal lol I meant to say fair deal. That was a freudian slip if I've ever seen one. ... yet somehow I managed to use new age internet speak so I guess that's at least a testament to my geek-hip-ness. I even make freudian slips in 1337 speak. Massive fail. Please at the very least have a laugh at my expense. :) Let this be a lesson on how NOT to sell a macbook.

Man, those things are awesome Randy, but my friend is not a video geek, he's an apple and photo geek with a Nikon D300 series, I think I like them more then the Canons for photo. :) BTW, have you seen the new Canon EOS 5D Mark II? Drewl power. A DSLR that shoots great video? Can it be? I'd love to hear what someone with more video experience then I thinks. -Mike On Wed, Jan 14, 2009 at 8:41 PM, RANDY MANN themaddm...@gmail.com wrote: ill trade a cannon xl1 for it On Wed, Jan 14, 2009 at 6:05 PM, Mike Meiser groups-yahoo-...@mmeiser.comwrote: fail deal lol I meant to say fair deal.
