Their a GREAT Deal! Just got mine 2 weeks ago. It was listed with one gig of RAM yet when I got it it had 2 Gig. Gotta Love it!
Lastly this Macbook looks brand new and I defy anyone that sees it to be able to tell any different!
I was hesitant to buy a refurb. Not any more! Since then I also bought a refurb new model blue tooth keybd for my iMac and a bluetooth mouse for my macbook and both of them also work great and look new!

The black macbook refurb is a great deal and damn near 1/3 off the price of a new one!

I guess you can tell that IM very pleased with mine! ;)

i bought mine the week the refurb prices came down. before the update i was looking into the core duo model for $899, but the $1049 blackbook was too good of a deal to pass up. like you, mine came with 2 gb of ram making it an even better deal. unbelievable! :)

Gaelan, the 1049 is the last Santa Rosa update. The 999 was the update before that. Both were in the refurb store last week.

I received my refurb black Macbook last week- got the $1049 2.2 SR model. I have put 4 gb of ram in it, and it really flies. It's just like new, perfect display (best that I've ever used on a laptop). Really happy!

That model has been in the refurbs for a while now I think. I thought you were talking about the new one, that would have been quick.

I'm really considering getting my first mac soon and want it to be a blackbook. I know the $1,049 is a great deal but how long should I expect it to be until the new pneryn are in the refurb stores? 3 months maybe? But I did hear that the new ones do not provide any major speed bumps or anything...the refurb is looking better and better

Don't forget that it includes an apple remote too! ;-)...

Honestly, order that, pump it up to 4 GB of RAM and you'll be good to go!
