The
MacBook Pro is Apple's top-of-the-range laptop offering most of the features and performance of the desktop models
in a portable model. Whilst it doesn't have the extreme portability of the tiny MacBook Air, the MacBook Pro because
of it's bigger size and fewer constraints is more usable as an everyday workstation - particularly in it's 17" version
it's almost a desktop computer in a laptop body.
MacBook Pro now has up to Quad-Core Intel i7 processors with up to 8GB of RAM and 750GB of disk storage making it more powerful than many desktop PCs! The Unibody casing is milled from a single piece of aluminium making it very strong and light as well as beautiful.

Secondhand can be an attractive option, saving you the initial depreciation that happens as soon as you open the box, and if you buy a fairly new secondhand one, all the manufacturer's warranty will still be in place so you will be fully covered in the event of any faults. If you're prepared to go slightly older, you can often pick up some real bargains with last year's model going for a fraction of it's original price. eBay is of course one of the best places to find secondhand MacBook Pro bargains and we have created a page that searches eBay for you to find the best deals. Our unique filtering system trawls through the eBay database selecting only the most relevant offers and best deals to save you time.
