Macbook Air

[VeggenNorway]

Is there anywhere where you can get an Macbook Air (i5/4gb memory+) for less than 450 usd? Could be used.. You got some old ones Linus?

But this might compare

Ebay maybe.  I just sold both my macbook airs since I wanted a bit more horsepower.  Both were 13", one was a 2011 model the other was a 2012.  I got just over 1200 for the two combine and that is because I gave the guy a break for buying both of them.   So getting one for Under $450 USD would be tough.   Ebay and craigslist would be your best bet but you would have to be watching for that great deal.

Picking up a Mac mini would probably be the cheapest way to learn it on native, otherwise you can always hackintosh it.

Hackintosh is probably not the best way to learn OSX.   Too much work to get it to run right.

Best? No. Cheapest? HELL YES

Buy a good computer and install Hackinstosh on it

 

Absolutely doubt you can get one half it's price, especially when Apple's involved.
