It all depends really on what YOU think of it. Does the computer do everything you want it to do? Does it run smoothly? Does it do everything it said it does? Are you happy with it? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you more then likely got your moneys worth. Its all about your opinion, really.

However, if you want my opinion, I think MAC's are junk because you cant do ANYTHING on them (hacking wise, like games and emulators, etc) They are way too thin (if you drop that thing from like 1 foot it'll break into a million pieces) and I just dont like the way their whole desktop and internet is set up.

However, that is my own personal opinion. I am a die-hard windows user. You may like how the MAC is set up. You may like how thin and light the laptop is, and maybe the computer already does everything and anything you need it for. If so thats great, and you are entitled to your opinion, I just dont personally like them, thats all I am saying.

So, in short, if you are happy with it, and it does everything and anything you need it to do, then it was worth it.
