From: Justin C on 20 Jun 2010 18:33 Does anyone know when the refurb store adds new items? I looked the other day and there were a few bits in all categories except 'mini'. Now there's nothing left apart from a few clearance items, nothing at all, nada, nowt. So, is there a regular time that they add new refurbs to the store? Justin. -- Justin C, by the sea.

I have a vague memory that it's generally on Wednesday mornings, but that's just me relying on my memory, and at my age that's not reliable. Also, I find that my memory is becoming less reliable, too. MST

There was some new stuff this morning. But still no Minis, nor regular MacBooks, Pros, or displays. Not that I want those things, I want two Minis - but not at 650 quid each, and for what I want them for they don't need to be current spec - though they do look bloody nice.

I wouldn't mind a new mini to get the HDMI output (assuming it routes digital audio too?) to replace my HTPC, but no way i'm paying �650 for the priviledge! :) I'll be keeping an eye on the refurb store too... race you to a mini ;) T.

Any particular reason the single CPU Prs go so fast - I take it they're C2Ds? Justin. -- Justin C, by the sea. |
