I’m set upon removing the brand new Apple Macbook. I’ve listened which financing by Apple or Barclay as it’s called, is horrible. Someone referred to we squeeze by Best Buy as good as financial by them as well. Does any one have any alternative suggestions upon financing the Macbook or anything to supplement to Apple as good as Best Buy financing ?

Someone else was asking about a notebook computer with very specific requirements. I found a dual-core, high clock speed, 3GB RAM, 320GB hard drive, high-end ATI chipset GPU Windows 7 system for less than $500 including tax. That’s retail price at Best Buy.
I’m not saying you should settle for a PC (heaven forbid!). But notebook computers can be had for less (much less) than $500 now, full retail price, including tax. And these are NOT stripped-down entry level models.
I think anybody would be nuts to consider financing the purchase of a notebook computer. Save up a few hundred bucks and buy one. If a few hundred bucks won’t buy an Apple Macbook, you need to ask Apple why their hardware is so fricking expensive when nearly identical hardware running "Windows" is dirt cheap.
I wouldn’t call the Barclay financing "horrible," but the fact is that it’s just a credit card. You could finance the computer with any credit card with a high enough limit. Or, save your cash until you can afford it!
Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
