I'm getting ready to part ways with my white MacBook from early 2008. It's been a great computer and it's suited my needs, but not being able to run Illustrator and Photoshop at the same time is getting to be a pain. Luckily I only use it for freelance needs on occasion, but it's time for an upgrade.
Anyway, the thing is in fantastic condition. I had the hard drive replaced in summer 2010. The port panel side thing (whatever it's called) was replaced in 09. And the magnet keyboard rest thing was also replaced to to cracking (all Apple's fault). I have the original boxes and although I need to wipe the computer clean before selling it, I'll make sure it's running Snow Leopard with iLife 11. I'm also tossing in a Macally portfolio bag with laptop case insert (it's pretty damn hardcore and hardly used - grey and black exterior with bright yellow lining).
The MacBook has a 2.16GHz Intel Core Duo, 1GB of DDR2 SDRAM, 120GB HD, built-in iSight, 13.3" matte widescreen, and a SuperDrive. I haven't done any upgrades, so there's room to really speed this thing up.
Anyway, I'm thinking about putting it on ebay or Craigslist, but I have no idea what these things are going for and I couldn't find any good examples. Has anyone sold one of these recently? What should I start this at?Also if anyone from QBN has any interest, shoot me an email. I'll give ya the QBN discount. It'd make a great second or family computer...I just don't have any reason to keep it around and would love to put the money towards a shiny new MacBook Pro.
Any questions, requests for pictures, whatever, just let me know.
