Buying a new or refurbed iMac?
I’m in the market for a new iMac. I’m looking at new, but also notice there are various companies offering refurbed models which are clearly older but would suit my needs. Would be around half the price and most come with one year warranty. Anyone have any experience of buying refurbed?
|
I bought a refurb directly from Apple, saved a few hundred quid. Lovely machine.
|
Only get year apple stuff anyway , so why bother new
( and even if the fault was there within warranty period , bad luck ) |

save a few hundred quid yet still more expensive and lower spec than a brand new PC.
pmsl, sorry not had a pop at apple all week and could resist lol |
Have more than enough of PC and windows at work. It is a pleasure to come home and use a Mac! ;)

2.3GHz Intel Xeon W Turbo Boost up to 4.3GHz 42.75MB cache Radeon Pro Vega 64 graphics processor with 16GB of HBM2 memory 64 compute units 4,096 stream processors 11 teraflops single precision 22 teraflops half precision 128GB of 2666MHz DDR4 ECC memory So slow LOL |
so you picked the max spec you could buy eh, and how much does that cost?
and no 1080ti? hahahaha |
15k in that spec, pmsl,
can get a pc running twin cpu's and 256gb ram for that price. do you really wanna go down that route of trying to claim you get a better spec of apple than pc for the same money again jack? you looked like a jackasss last time lol |

No, I'm just laughing at you and your blanket claim that an iMac isn't powerful enough. You crack on with your supercomputing or more likely shooting imaginary people.

Legit site ?
That's Apple themselves isn't it . So probably not .do they need more advertising |

Our new/refurbed Mac should do so long as my Mrs can continue to book holidays and order stuff online from Next. If I can edit photos and look at dodgy websites - like this one :lol1: - then jobs a good ‘un!

It’ll be great and won’t look like a slot machine and sound like an air conditioner.

The subject being "New or refurbed iMac" and your response being "buy a PC" time for you to wriggle again.
