To buy the latest laptop, be it a MacBook or from HP, Lenovo and other manufacturers, you need at least between $500 and $1000 in your bank account. That is not a good thing if you are cash-strapped at the moment.
Fortunately, Amazon has laptops that are renewed and on sale for less than when it was originally sold. In the case of the MacBooks, these are not Apple-certified, but have been professionally inspected and tested by Amazon-qualified suppliers, just like the others on this list. All of them are guaranteed to work as good as new, and some even come with third-party accessories.
