I've decided to turn my iMac into another MacBook...
I bought this iMac in Oct of 2008, and it is in excellent condition. I take very good care of my computers. I paid just under $3000 for it in Oct, and you'd still be looking at paying close to $2500 to get (close to) this same configuration from Apple today. In fact, the best you could do from their online store right now is this exact model - refurbished and with half the hard drive space - for $1899.
I'm willing to sell for
$1499 obo. This is a CP discount, as I have it listed on Kijij for $1599. I'm also willing to discuss trades for a white or black 13" MacBook (plus cash).
PM me here if you're interested. Thanks!

Please note: this iMac comes with a Logitech Wireless Mouse, not the Apple mouse that came with it. Most people familiar with Apple mice will understand why I wouldn't use one. The Logitech mouse I'm including is very nice, it is a laser mouse that cost me just over $100. It is very much an upgrade over the stock Apple mouse.
