Apple has added new Intel-based MacBooks and MacBook Pros to its list of refurbished products--all of which carry the standard one-year warranty. The Apple Store online offers both standard and glossy display versions of the previous-generation Intel-based 17-inch, 2.16GHz MacBook Pro (1GB of RAM/120GB hard drive/SuperDrive) for $1,999. The company is also offering its latest Intel-based consumer laptop with a Core 2 Duo processor (and 802.11n networking) for less than $1000: the refurbished 1.83GHz white MacBook (512MB/60GB/Combo drive) is only $949, while the more powerful 2GHz white MacBook (1GB/80GB/SuperDrive) is priced at $1,099. The 2.0GHz black MacBook with a larger 120GB drive is $1,299--or $200 less than the standard retail price.
Apple is also offering Intel-based Core Duo 17-inch iMacs for only $799 (512MB/80GB/Combo); the upgraded model with a 160GB drive and SuperDrive is only $999, while the Core 2 Duo 17-inch iMac is only $1049.
