Filed under: Deals, MacBook Air
Set condition one for bargain hunters! The U.S. Apple Store is now offering refurbished MacBook Air models with 1.6GHz processors, 2GB of memory, and 80GB (non-solid-state) hard drives for $1,549. That's a savings of 14 percent from the retail model. Or, think of it as getting a free AppleCare subscription (for $249).
As of this writing, the refurb model shows shipping times of three to five business days.
Thanks, Chris!

It is special if you want to avoid ebay.

I will not care about the Air until the 128GB SSD hits. Then I will gobble this thing up.

And Apple will only be gobbling up up 4 grand from you for it.

doubtful...I bet money the 128GB SSD will be as much as the current 64GB SSD worst case scenario.
