Thinking of getting a CHEAP MAC for just APP development

[ale101]

Hey guys I wanna take a crack at app development for the iOS and was thinking about picking up a cheap used MacBook there are some going for 220 online. Does anyone know of a good place to look for just ebay? Also would older Macs still allow me to use the same app developing programs?

Where are you seeing them go for 220 online? As far as older macs go, it depends on the specs...macs hold their value surprisingly well, so you might have a hard time finding one with the specs you want if your budget is small. I have a friend that buys them off ebay and resells them, and he has pretty good luck. Another place you could check is craigslist.
