I did in fact buy one a few weeks ago. I checked out Mac stations here and they had a few older iBooks that were about $100 cheaper than the new models. I asked the salesman why anyone would buy the used ones and he had no answer. for $100 a newer, faster, better machine with waranty would have been the way to go.

What I did buy was a year and half old from someone on craigslist. great machine and only $850.

Thanks though!
