So I am going to get a Mac laptop... but I am very unsure of which one to get. Here are the options for me...
1) Refurb MacBook Pro (not the most recent model, but a nicer price than a new one)
2) Refurb MacBook (If I get a macbook, I want a black one... again, refurb would be cheaper but not the most current)
3) New MacBook (Hafta be black, and a new one would be faster and have some other enhancements...)
I can't afford a new MacBook Pro, so that is off the table for sure. I guess what it comes down to is, is the Pro model that much better than a refurbed older model would be a better long-term buy than a new black MacBook?
I'm also torn about wheter or not to get AppleCare. I never got it on anything previously, but I never had a portable before.
HELP!
