Hi all,
I saw this last night in the Myer catalog:
http://catalogues.myer.com.au/portal/offerdetails/apple_macb…
It mentioned in the catalog that they are offering 1000 days interest free if you have a myer card or myer credit card (not myer one)… There are also additional payment each year (admin etc)….I also assume that the payments need to be paid through the myer card.
any thoughts?
cheers…

1000 days interest free is a good offer but you are buying a previous generation Macbook here. You're essentially buying a laptop that is 3-4 years out of date.
If you can afford working on desktop, I would highly recommend the iMac 27". You'll be so much satisfied with what you can have at the same price. Big screen, better performance, etc.
For laptop, if you can afford Windows, there are plenty of windows based laptop with better spec than this at lower price.
