Apple Macbook Pro 17" - Advice please
 
Right, I have found the below MacBook Pro -

17" Secreen
Intel Core i7 2.4ghz
750GB HDD
DVD RW (Dual R, CD RW)

Retail is £1900. This is an old model and I can get for £1399 delivered.

So question is, do I go for it? Old model, no retina screen, but it is a better spec than the most comparatively specced 13" MacBook Pro on Apple's website.

Downside I have found so far is 17" is a bit big - This won't be leaving the house.

This is also a better specced (processor and HDD than my Dell)

Thanks

Look at the apple refurb section. I'm not massively fussed about retina so I personally would buy it

go retina, for the extra quid, its worth it. i was impressed by the res in Windows 7.

Very fast boot, light etc.

I would however if it was my money, look at a slate unless your gaming. The new Sony Vaio DUO 11 core I7 slate check it out fantastic machine used one te other day
