What's on this page?
The 15" MacBook Pro was introduced to replace the venerable PowerBooks, ushering in the new era of Intel processors on a Mac laptop. If you're using OS X exclusively and you're a bit of a power user, a certified pre-owned MacBook Pro (also known as a used MacBook Pro or reseller refurbished MacBook Pro elsewhere) is the way to go (the smaller, slower MacBooks are worth considering as well). If you still need OS 9 (or prefer a built-in modem), then the PowerBooks are worthy machines.
Also, don't forget to consider the 17" version of the MacBook Pro... the extra screen size often more than makes up for the slightly heavier load.
Since chip makers are having a difficult time increasing the speed of their chips, they are building additional "cores" into them, allowing for greater speed. The MacBooks come with two cores, with the difference between Core Duo and Core 2 Duo being a larger L2 cache and other technologies that enhance the speed (not something that you'll notice in most applications a great deal, however). Otherwise, the models are all very similar, with similar battery life and networking, and of course Magsafe power connectors, scrolling trackpads, and integrated iSight video cameras.
General Specifications:
- RAM: PC2-5300 DDR2
- Maximum RAM: 2 GB in two slots. Models with Core 2 Duo up to 2.33 GHz: 3 GB max. Models with GeForce 8600M GT video: 4 GB max.
- Display resolution: 1440x900
- Supports an external display at a maximum resolution of 2560x1600
- 1 FireWire 400 port, later models added a FireWire 800 port
- 2 USB 2.0 ports
- Airport Extreme and Bluetooth standard
- ExpressCard/34 Expansion slot
- Ethernet: 10/100/1000 Base T
Advantages of a pre-owned MacBook Pro:
- A great value for power users using the latest software
- Built-in iSight camera
- Reliable design and architecture
- For all but the most demanding applications, an Intel-based laptop will handle most current apps with ease
- A smaller percentage depreciation. With most of the depreciation taken out of these machines already, they'll retain their purchase price value for some time to come
- A workhorse machine designed to last for years
Our guarantee:
Our Pre-Owned MacBook Pros come with a 90 day warranty and two additional guarantees: First, if it arrives and isn't working as it should, we'll pick it up* and replace it at our expense (some conditions apply). Second, if at any time in the first 90 days of the purchase of a pre-owned Mac you wish to trade it in, we will guarantee you the FULL purchase price value you paid toward the purchase of anything else we sell. You can't lose with us!
*Does not apply to in-store or will call orders

Why People Like You Chose Powermax
Just wanted to say "Thanks Again" for taking care of me on this order. Anyway - I'm a happy camper. Just wanted you to know!
Peace and Blessings,
I received the display and the last tablet today, thank you. Your service has been great; I appreciate you taking an interest in my new business, and will certainly have more purchase orders for you in the future.
Best,
Just wanted to thank you for the personal service. I appreciate that you called me on my credit card problem, and have kept me updated on the status of my order. I place orders on line several times a month, and sometimes customer service is lacking.
Thank you, again.
I just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to CALL me after you were unable to reach me via e-mail yesterday. I am glad that you contacted me when you discovered that the mouse that I ordered was no longer available in the color that I wanted and am very impressed with the personal approach that you and PowerMax have taken even though PowerMax is an online vendor. Even though I was not able to purchase from PowerMax on this occasion, I will certainly buy from you in the future. It's nice to see that there are still people out there that care about their customers.
Best Regards,
BIG kudos to your company for shipping to APOs. I love Apple and all their products, but their lack of support to Service Members deployed and stationed overseas has been a sore point with me for a long time!!! It is refreshing to find a company that understands that Soldiers in Iraq (and Afghanistan, and Germany, and Japan, etc.) deserve easy access to Macs as well as anyone else.
Thank you for your help.
