Refurb $949 MacBooks
Apple's online store is once again offering $949 reconditioned MacBooks and $849 refurbished iMacs after a long dry spell when nearly no refurbished items were available. The Cupertino-based company is offering just one discounted White MacBook model with a 1.83GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 512MB of memory, and a 60GB hard drive for $949. Apple is also taking orders for its 17-inch 1.83GHz Intel Core 2 Duo iMac with 512MB of memory, a 160GB hard drive, and a 24x Combo Drive for $849. Three additional available refurbished iMac models include the 17-inch 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 1GB of memory, a 160GB hard drive, and a slot-loading 8x double-layer SuperDrive for $1,049; the 20-inch 2.16GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 1GB of memory, a 250GB hard drive, and a slot-loading 8x double-layer SuperDrive for $1,299; and the 24-inch 2.16GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 1GB of memory, a 250GB hard drive, and a slot-loading 8x double-layer SuperDrive for $1,699.
The Apple Store Canada is also shipping the refurbished White 1.83GHz MacBook with 512MB of memory and a 60GB hard drive for CAD $1,099. Apple's Canada Store still appears out of reconditioned iMacs, however.

long dry spell?
I'm not sure what is meant by a "long dry spell". I ordered a refurb macbook last week. I was watching the site every single day once I decided to buy and they didn't have any from tue till sat. I guess that's longer than usually, but not that bad.
