Check out used computers to save for students

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- If your child needs a computer for school think used.

You can save big money buying used technology.

Experimac in west Houston has refurbished laptops for cheap with a warranty. This includes Apple products.

A refurbished 13-inch Macbook is on sale for just $499.

"If you go to try to shop one new, the starting price is $1000, so basically this is half. So this is basically more resources and more power than the ones you are buying new today," said David Scarbrough from Experimac.

The Macbook includes a one year warranty.

If you are on a tight budget, check out the selection of used desktop computers at Top Tech Experts off Bingle Road in Spring Village.

There you can get a computer for $200 to $250, and your student will get everything he or she needs for a back-to-school computer.
