Macs seem to have an absurd resale value, you could always try to sell it.

- unalone 18y agoYeah: they apparently devalue extremely slowly. Depending on if they do release a new 17" MBP or not, I might look into that. If I can sell my 5-month-old one and make back my money, it would be a pretty neat deal overall.
- tptacek 18y agoIf that's true, I'm surprised. We go through Macbooks like they're disposable. The case cracks, the keyboard gets unspringy, the screns sometime flicker, PMUs die. I love them, but "low maintenance" they are not.
- pmjordan 18y agoI don't claim to understand why, but looking at recently sold Macs on eBay you'd think they'd stopped making them.
- bretthoerner 18y agoSome are surely unsatisfied customers, but a lot of old-rev Macs go on sale when the shiny new ones come out (there was a flood of sale listings on my local craigslist today). People need to blow their cash on something, I guess.
- DougBTX 18y agoTrue for early MacBooks, though all replaced under warranty.
