Need to upgrade Macbook Pro for new job
Good morning folks.
I'm starting a new job which will eventually give me a work-issued computer, however they recommended using my personal one in the meantime for apps like Teams, Authenticator, Duo, etc.
My current MacBook Pro is from 2017 and while it still runs very smoothly, the OS can't update past Ventura 13.7.8 so I'm faced with the quandary of getting something newer. I see a lot of options out there for used or refurbished MacBook Pros but with so many to choose from, I'm wondering what is the most reputable source so I don't end up wasting $800-900 on something that will end up being a dud and not have any recourse with whatever company I end up buying from.
I looked at the Apple website for refurbished 2024 models and I was honestly surprised they're going for well over $2k. Are companies like Back Market worth looking into?
Thanks and have a great Monday.
