Finance options for macbook pro

I am planning to purchase a macbook pro and was looking into possible finance options and found the finance option on the apple website the only problem is it mentioned something about a loan so does this mean if I was to go for the finance option on a £1700 macbook pro and never missed a payment I would be repaying the 1700 and a bit on top even if I never missed a payment.
In other words I only want to choose finance if I only have to repay what I borrow with no interest on top.

Credit Cards... yes. Because they're a "revolving door" when it comes to credit. A loan on the other hand, is not.
I'd say in the case of a "loan" there's going to be some level of interest. The financing options for US customers is different than the payment plans they offer in the UK. I encourage you to visit this website for more details on how the program works-
http://www.apple.com/uk/financing/consumer/faq.html
Judging by the FAQ, there's definitely going to be some interest. It would appear as though that information is not public (at least on their website) so you'll need to call in for more details and specifics.

  • External monitor options For Macbook Pro(2011)

    Just curious as to what my monitor options are as a external monitor for the Macbook Pro.  I'm pretty much set on 27'' thunderbolt display but its a hefty price to swallow...
    Best buy has some good deals on there 27'' monitor but can i get the same resolution and clarity from other brands that will be eqivalent to Apple?
    I'd like to stay in the 27'' to 30'' size...
    thanks

    Any other options like Samsung, LG etc... that offer the same specs as the thunderbolt display? 
    Thanks

  • Best external RAID option for MacBook Pro

    I have been searching for an external RAID enclosure/solution to use with my MacBook Pro (with Thunderbolt). I would like to use Thunderbolt, but if Firewire 800 provides a more reliable solution than any of the Thunderbolt solutions I will go with the more stable options.
    I have looked at a variety of options, and it appears the following are the top runners for a solution, any thoughts on any of these options:
    Get a Promise Pegasus Thunderbolt array
    The reliability of this unit really worries me, and if it failed as frequently as some are indicating, it could be busy nearly all the time recovering if I had 6+GB of content on the thing when it failed
    Advantage of this unit is I could get enough capacity in one chassis to hold me for a fair length of time
    The big disadvantage, if this thing fails as frequently as some indicate, restoring 6+GB of content to the thing does not sound fun
    Get one of the Thunderbolt, OS X Software RAID boxes, (the likes of G-Tech, and Western Digital)
    The use of the OS to manage the RAID array worries me, how is performance, how easy is it to replace a faulty drive and have the OS detect the new drive and start the rebuild process?
    How long will it take to rebuilt a failed disc in the 2 to 3TB range?  
    Use the Firewire 800 port on a CalDigit VR 2 two drive RAID 1 mirror set
    This seems to have fairly decent reviews, although there is not a lot of end user reviews that I have found
    It will take at least three of the largest unit CalDigit makes to handle my images and have room for new images
    Clearly Firewise will not be as fast as the Thunderbird devices
    Get the CalDigit VR 2 but try to use the USB3 connection
    CalDigit has a USB 3 card that can fit in the 17" MacBook Pro, but I have no idea how well the USB 3 card works with the MacBook Pro? 
    USB 3 does not daisy chain, the CalDigit card has two ports, however, if you have more than two external arrays you are still in a mood of swapping external drives
    Drobo is coming out with Thunderbolt solutions
    The bare box is pricey, add four or five large drives and there is some serious money in the thing
    There are lot's of reports of failures and inability to rebuild, etc., on the Drobo
    The OWC Quad interface QX2
    A fair number of reports of failures on this device
    Little information on rebuild speed in event a drive needs to be replaced
    I am not very interested in a NAS, even with GigaBit Ethernet the performance will not be as good as direct attached
    I do have a 3 year old Mac Pro that is under utilized, I could add more storage and even a RAID controller card for an external enclosures, but again, trying to edit images and/or videos across the network may not be a viable option
    Any other ideas, something KNOWN to be good, with minimal failures, and when it does fail it rebuilds quickly and safely                                                        
    The last piece of the solution is ideally a solution that is fairly low noise.
    Any suggestions, direct end user experience, etc., would be greatly appreciated

    What a list
    Well, take a look at CalDigit's HDPro2 8TB (supporting RAID 5 and 6)
    http://www.CalDigit.com/store.asp#HDPro2
    It's more expensive than others but works with your MacPro thorugh PCIe connection and very reliable comparing to others.
    or a cheaper HDOne 8TB in RAID 5/6

  • 24-inch Mid 2007 as external display for Macbook Pro Retina?

    I'm a video editor looking for a new laptop. Tough decisions, but these facts may help my decision...
    Can I use my 24-inch Mid 2007 as external display for Macbook Pro Retina?
    And if so, would the Macbook be able to access the external hard drives that are connected to the iMac? Or do the external hard drives have to be connected to the Macbook Retina?
    Retina's picture quality is just incredible but compared to Macbook Pro non-retina you sacrifice: disc drive, port options, customization, anti-glare screen. And its more expensive. Arghh

    I would use the retina as the primary screen for the canvas and viewer, while putting the browser and timeline on the iMac.
    Apple won't help here. Unfortunately, they leave they're old products in the dust and wouldn't waste time writing an article about connecting a macbook retina to an '07 iMac.
    Thank you for replying though Ralph. The answer has to be out there somewhere.

    Your Mac is too old
    To Airdrop between a Mac an iOS device
    System Requirements
    To see if your Mac works with AirDrop, make sure you’re in the Finder by clicking the desktop (the background area of your screen), or by clicking the Finder icon in the Dock. Then, check to see if AirDrop is listed as an option in the Go menu. If you don't see AirDrop listed, your Mac doesn't support this feature.
    In order to transfer files between a Mac and and an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
    your iOS device needs to include a lightning connector
    your iOS device needs iOS 7 or later installed
    your Mac needs to be a 2012 or later model with OS X Yosemite installed
    Your Mac and iOS device both need bluetooth and Wi-Fi turned on. You do not have to be connected to a specific Wi-Fi network.
    To transfer files between two Mac computers, you need the Mac models listed below with Wi-Fi turned on and OS X Lion or later installed.

  • Do apple protection plan for macbook pro cover retina or is it just macbook pro

    does apple care for macbook pro 15"/17" also cover til macbook with retina or not??

    Covers all Mac models. Just be sure to order the correct AC item for YOUR specific model. Price is contingent on the model covered.
    Edit: it appears that the AC 15" MBP package covers the regulars and the Retinas as well for that size. To be on the safe side, pick the Retina option from the list:

  • The normal value of battery capacity for macbook pro

    Hi there,
         I noticed my battery full charge capacity value is way below the technical specification from Apple.
    For macbook pro 15" early 2011 version a 77.5W battery is built-in.
    However, so far after 4 cycle, my full charge capacity is 6913mAh.
    It seems that I missed something. Though I didn't really notice the initial value when it's brandnew.
         Statistically what's the average value of the new battery will be ? around 75W or 7500mAh? Any idea?

  • I bought the wrong version as I need it for macbook pro but somehow bought windows...help

    I guess I will have to wait until normal office hours.  I have no idea why it bought the window version as I did not realize that is what was selected.  I hope I can get it exchanged for the photoshop elements 13 for macbook pro retina display.     Anyone know if this is an easy switch and one they will do?

    When buying HD versions of shows, only the HD copy will automatically download now (probably due to requests from people who don't need/want the SD version and complained about it being forced on them). The SD copy can be downloaded from your purchases area in iTunes, though. On the main iTunes Store page, go to Purchases under the Quick Links and then select TV shows. Click the "Not On This Computer" button. Uncheck the "Download HD when available" box and you should then see the SD copies of the shows and be able to download them.
    Regards.

  • How can I know if my new internal hd for macbook pro is compatible?

    I have been trying to upgrade my internal HD for macbook pro early 2008 2.4 and have been having a hard time getting it to boot.  Problems with both WD and Seagate.  I am wondering if the problem is with Mavericks.  I got a good back up from Time Machine to load on the hybrid drive.  Then when I try to restart it shows the apply symbol with no chime and then a black screen comes over the blue screen with some code (strange problem I have never seen) I can see that all the data is on the drive.  I was able to partitian in disk utility.  Anything ringing a bell.  I have done several switches like this and this is the first time I have had so much trouble.  I reinstalled my old drive just to make sure there was not another hardward issue and everything is fine there.  In fact I have a new logic board freshly installed by mac. 

    Your machine has a SATA 2 interface and I'm sure the new drives are SATA 3. They should still step down and work though. It's possible your SATA cable is marginal and the newer drive is trying to demand more out of it than the old one did. A good test would be to put the new drive in an external enclosure and see if it works ok from there. If so, it's probably the cable.

    How did you install Mavericks on the new drive?

    Those are same as use by Apple in the non-retina macbook Pro, Ive got piles of them, only a Hitachi is better.
    Toshiba HD are a hair noisy even by Toshiba own admission, but no big deal.
    I would NEVER buy from OWC merely for the reasons that their prices are miserable.
