Absolutely fucking heart breaking.

Is this a bad place to ask about getting a cracked non subscription version of InDesign for Mac?

Asking for a friend… of a friend… who I used to know… from another school.

£15 collection Leyton. E10.

Works fine, putting here on the off chance and then eBay.

I went with the MacBook Air 16gb/512 in the end.

Got it from CEX for the five year warranty. Hopefully never have to find out if that warranty is actually any good but reassuring nonetheless...

Very, very happy so far.

Appreciate the replies.

Am still curious as to whether the 8gb is a waste and the actual differences between 8 and 16 in the m chip models.

Ola,

I am looking to get a Mac laptop in the next couple of weeks, I have done some research but still a bit undecided and have found I have a few questions unanswered.

First off:

• My budget is around £750, although could stretch a bit.

• I would like a laptop. This is definite, not a mini (I know they are good!).

• I think it has to be an M chip.

• My main aims are photoshopping, and invoicing (I use word and excel). Be good to be able to listen to music on it and browsing at the same time. Pretty basic.

• I know Mac’s are expensive and constantly have new models but would like this to last and I will use it until it dies. Five years minimum I hope for it to work well.

• My previous, I’ve always used ancient imacs my present one is the last one with a dvd drive! It is absolutely on its last legs and takes an age to do anything. YouTube is a memory. As I said, I will use the new one until death. Before that I had another iMac and then prior to that PowerBooks, but all dated when I got them.

• Screen size, bigger would be better but I don’t think an issue if it’s the smaller ones if it is better machine.

What I am looking at:

• I’ve been looking at refurbished ones, and tbh, the CEX 5 year warranty is hard to beat. Have looked at Hoxton Macs, Back Market and it seems curries only do 8gb airs. The zero finance at curries is appealing but looks like they already have money added to the price. But I would like a decent, decent condition to start.

• It seems to me I could get an m2 8gb or really stretch for a 16gb or get an m1 and easily get 16gb with 512 as opposed to 256.

• with the m1’s it looks like the air is probably the better option despite the pro having better speakers, microphone (don’t care) and a brighter display. I am unsure if it has any extra ports, I think they both have two thunderbolts. The pros have that Touch Bar thing which wasn’t well received, I’m not sure if I care, should I? Maybe only if it looks like it is something which will break.

• the m2 is obviously more recent but my needs don’t really require more than the m1 I’m sure, apart from the longevity.

• I am unsure whether the m2 pros and airs differ that much. I know they changed the bodies.

So my questions really are I suppose:

• M2 or better specced M1?

• Following the above, pro or air?

• Also, is 8gb anything a waste and or/ shortsighted?

• Will I have to use a subscription for word and excel or will it have alternatives I can get used to? Or can I get some sort of copy?

Many thanks.

Yeah ok, knocked the price down a bit.

There’s room to haggle included in the price.

Cheeky bid could do it.

Begrudging sale, £700. E10 pick up.

Looks a bit weathered but great runner.

If you like you can swap the seat as shown. Also the spare bars you can have (lengths shown) if you want/ prefer. One pair has vans grips but can include fresh black odi grips too.

Fair play.

On the off chance, would you consider swapping for a fixie?

Condor, oms, thomson stem and post, mavic rear. Used condition but great runner. 52 size.

Don’t know if it helps but I got the 70l mountain equipment bag for £75 down from like £140 from Cotswolds on Monday. The Piccadilly shop but they all were offering the deal online.

I’m sure it’s not really a deal. The rab 80l was £85…

This is almost too much.

But I want more.

Mamma Mia, slipping through my fingers, money, money, money!

Still got the clothes rack?

Unlikely fourth. Am in e10 tho.

Amazing.

I’d definitely be interested however a trip to New York next week might delay my enthusiasm for a bit.

Where are you?

Nvm

That’s good of you to offer to post, so no hard feelings.

However I think I’ll leave it, I don’t need a bag but thought it a good deal.

Someone will get a bargain.

Took the tube to Brixton from east London after this exchange (having previously agreed I’d got it as the other was falling through), sat there like a lemon for half hour (said in the chat when I was leaving and had arrived) and left without receiving any replies.
