I am selling a 4 year old Apple laptop on eBay for a few hundred bucks less than the current one i’m looking to replace it with is. This Macbook Pro that I no longer use and had given to my parents will be traded in for a Macbook Air that I am ordering for them right now. I will spend about $300 on it, factoring in the sale of the Macbook Pro and they will be downgrading screen size (17 inch to 13 inch) and CD drive (Macbook Airs have none. which they don’t need) and will be upgrading the hard drive to a solid state one (no moving parts), getting an extra gig of memory, a bump in processor speed and an iSight camera in HD.
Another reminder that Apple users might be disproportionately hipster and douchey but Apple products also have a high resale value (compared with a 0 resale value of a Windows machine).
