Building on Brian's suggestion, look at a used Macbook Pro. There are several reputable dealers on the net, I have done business with www.gainsaver.com and had good experience with them. They recycle computers coming off lease from companies, tear them down and then build them back up based on your needs. All the parts are used but they test that they work. You also can get am extended warranty which I would strongly recommend.
