As always, posting this because there is always an interest in Mac stuff at discounted prices. I DO NOT make a commission on these. Just offering the info which MANY people from on here have taken up on.
We are getting a decent size shipment of the following system and are offering them as a promotion. We should have the information on our website shortly also. They will be in stock most likely Monday.
They are available at my work, UBMicro on the UB North Campus. There is NO academic restriction on this model.
These are BRAND NEW, not refurbs.

Great deal if you are planning on the jump to a Mac.
And yes, you can install Windows on these since they have the Intel CPU’s
Please don’t ask if I can hook you up on the software if you are not a UB student. If you don’t have a UB id card, then I can’t get you any software. You still can buy the notebook though.
Any questions, email me at my work, jh48@buffalo.edu or call my desk 645-6375
Good price, and good seller, I bought one from ub micro when they had a special like this a year or so ago. :tup: :tup:
HOWEVER i wouldn’t say that you can upgrade to leopard with no problems… I have been very unimpressed with this OS release, I’ve had problems with it on both of my mac’s
The upgrade process is super simple, however if anyone is going to get this i’d actually recommend not upgrading for a little bit.
again this is nothing against the sale or seller, they are both great
If you do a fresh install and not an upgrade, it usually works WAY better. Been running 10.5 on here since 2 days before it was released and have had no issues at all. Probably more stable than 10.4.11 or whatever I was on.
Yeah it is a great deal. I picked up a black Macbook, and with my student discount and work discount I was able to get it to 1150 after tax, but no 3 year warranty.
my gf was able to get me this same computer, but with 1gb of ram for $949 cus she works for apple. but this is just insane cus its including a 3-yr warranty and 2gb of ram
you know i asked a few of my friends that upgraded and/or did fresh installs and they all agreed it didn’t seem to make much difference but on that note, none of them were having the same issues I was.
I will be upgrading to a MB Pro soon anyways and i’ll do a fresh install on that and see if it is any better.
