Dear All ­

I've a MacBook Pro, 1 hour of usage by a client, who now wishes to sell. I 
have a local buyer (possibly).

Here's the spec:

2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo - 15"
1 GByte RAM (in one piece - it can be upgraded easily)
120 GByte internal hard drive
SuperDrive  (reads & writes CDs and DVDs)
BlueTooth, Wifi, FireWire 400 & 800, 2x USB 2.0 ports, video adapter (for 
external display); built in iSight video camera, multi-touch mousepad
Running OS X 10.5.x

I've got machine, power supply, disks, little white manual, display adapter, 
no remote, no packaging.

Fair price to seller?
Fair price to buyer?


TIA

Believe me, my young friend (said the water rat, solemnly), there 
is nothing - absolutely nothing - half as much worth doing as simply 
messing about in boats. Simply messing about. Nothing seems really to 
matter, that's the charm of it. Whether you get away or whether you 
don't, whether you arrive at your destination or whether you reach 
somewhere else, or whether you get anywhere at all, you're always 
busy, and you never do anything in particular.

How much for a recon of the same spec from Apple?

I looked, and of course there aren't any at the mo'! I'll have a look at eBay 
completed, but I'd like to know what the people here think.

Less than £975, probably, following Eric C's posting .....
