Puter Update v2

So scratch that whole 17” MacBook Pro. I decided to look through the auction one more time before actually sending payment and what do I come across? 8600M GT 256MB… Um, yeah, that’s the old model. DAMNIT! Well, at least I didn’t pay for the item and believe it or not the seller was really nice about the whole situation and offered a Mutual Withdraw. Is was back to the ol’ eBay with searching for another MBP. Not even 24 hours later I find an amazing deal, a 15” 2.5GHz MBP (current model with 512MB 8600M GT) for $1800 BIN. Yeah, that’s what I said.

I’ve also scored another amazing deal as well. Check it out.

15” 2.5Ghz MBP (Brand New Sealed) - $2499 / $1800
23” Apple HD Cinema Display (Slightly used, looks new) - $899 / $200
Rocketfish BT Mouse (Brand New Sealed) - $79 / $27
Apple BT Keyboard - (Brand New Sealed) - $79 / $79 (yeah couldn’t find a deal on this one)
—————————-
$2106

Cheaper then buying just the MacBook Pro from the store. I currently have everything except the machine itself. ETA is 9/17. I can’t wait.

Update with pics when everything is setup.
