    Where would be a good spot to
    Lease or buy a used apple.
    [limited funds et al]

    Looking for a G4 or above.
    Lowest I seen is at Fries for 799
    the none expandable egg/pod looking thing
    I want to at least get a SuperDrive in it.

    You should be able to find a refurbished e-mac with super drive for a couple hundred less than 799. Buy some mac mags and look at the ads in the back.

    also check macmall.com

    I'd check out ebay if you don't mind getting a used one.

    Check ebay for a used one with an AppleCare Protection Plan (ACPP). It covers the hardware from 3 years from the original purchase price and is fully transferable. If you can find one that is a year old you have a two year guarantee on service. If it becomes unfixable within that two years, you usually end up getting a NEW model because Apple rarely keeps the old ones in stock.
    Either that or for a little more you can get a refurbished one from the Apple store and get a Protection plan on it.
    The Protection Plan is VITAL. I can take apart and fix every Mac ever made (iMacs with my eyes closed) and I have a protection plan on mine.
    Oh and if you do get a refurbished one from a 3rd party vendor, ask WHO refurbished it. If it wasn't Apple, DON"T BUY IT!
