Bag a Bargain Apple iMac, MacBook or Accessory With Woot's Limited-Time Sale
Woot is also offering refurbished accessories, too, so make sure to check this sale out even if you aren't in the market for a new Mac. Fans of Apple's tablets aren't left out, either, with iPad accessories also included.
The cheapest way to put an M-series Mac on your desk is the reconditioned M1 iMac for just $625 with multiple configurations and colors available. These machines are factory reconditioned and come with a 90-day Woot limited warranty.
Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.
If you're looking for a Mac that you can take with you, the M2 MacBook Pro is yours from $699. It comes with a 12-inch display and in your choice of color. Again, this model will come with Woot's 90-day warranty.
While Woot is offering some cheaper models if you're willing to go with an Intel chip, we would warn against going that route. Intel Macs are a little long in the tooth right now, and Apple is working towards removing support for them altogether. You'll notice a huge performance boost if you choose an M-series model instead.
Looking for accessories? The USB-C Apple Pencil is yours for just $60, while a two-meter MagSafe 3 cable will set you back $30 rather than the usual $49.
Why this deal matters
Buying a refurbished Mac is a great way to get some of the newer models at prices that aren't quite as eye-watering, but you'll need to be fast. These deals end in just a few days, and they could end sooner if stocks run dry first.

Intel is cutting more jobs as CEO Tan tries to fix manufacturing missteps
By Arsheeya Bajwa, Stephen Nellis and Max A. Cherney (Reuters) -Intel is going to end the year with a workforce that is over a fifth smaller than last year, it said on Thursday, and new CEO Lip Bu Tan presented a blueprint for a more cost-disciplined, streamlined chipmaker that would issue "no more blank checks." The job cuts - a majority of which have been completed already - are part of an effort by Tan since he took the helm in March to turn around the storied U.S. chipmaker. Intel has divested businesses, laid off employees and redirected resources. The company has underperformed due to years of management blunders. Intel has virtually no foothold in the booming AI chip industry that is dominated by Nvidia, and its longtime rival AMD has been gaining share in Intel's mainstay personal computer and server semiconductor markets. Its ambitious and costly plan for a chip contracting business that rivals that of Taiwan's TSMC has failed to take off. But Tan on Thursday signaled that he had taken charge of the company and was trying to wrest it back from what he viewed as previous missteps. "There are no more blank checks," Tan wrote in a memo to employees. "Every investment must make economic sense. We will build what our customers need, when they need it, and earn their trust through consistent execution." But shares still fell 4.5% in extended trading after the company forecast steeper third-quarter losses than Wall Street estimated. Tan also told analysts on a conference call that he believes Intel's so-called 18A manufacturing process - in which his predecessor Pat Gelsinger had deeply invested - could generate a reasonable return only if it is used for Intel's own products. Reuters reported earlier this month that Tan is debating whether to quit offering that technology to external customers. As part of the job cuts, Intel attempted to take a 'surgical' approach and remove layers of middle management, finance chief David Zinsner told Reuters. 'We took out about 50% of the layers of the company,' he said. The company is cutting its workforce by 15% from 96,400 that it reported at the end of June. It plans to further reduce headcount to 75,000 by the end of the year, down 22% from the end of 2024, which will be through attrition and "other means," according to the company. TAN WILL REVIEW "They may have overspent on 18A ... but I think this is the painted picture of a new fiscally disciplined base that they're going to go from here. I think that's the right approach," said Ben Bajarin, CEO of tech market analysis firm Creative Strategies. In the memo to employees, Tan said Intel is changing its strategy for building manufacturing capacity and now plans to build factories only when the demand for its chips is there. Previously, the company had built factories ahead of demand in the U.S. and elsewhere. Intel is now working to bring its 18A technology to high volume. Tan said in the memo that the company plans to take a disciplined approach to investments in the next-generation 14A manufacturing process, and in its quarterly securities filing, Intel said that if it fails to find a significant external customer for 14A, it may be forced to exit the chip manufacturing business. Tan wrote the company now plans to slow construction work on new factories in Ohio and halt planned factories in Poland and Germany, and consolidate chip packaging operations in Costa Rica with its other packaging operations in Vietnam and Malaysia. "I do not subscribe to the belief that if you build it, they will come," Tan said on the call with analysts. He later added that he will personally review and approve each of Intel's major chip designs. STEEP LOSSES Intel said it expects a third-quarter loss of 24 cents per share, steeper than estimates of losses of 18 cents per share, according to data from LSEG. It expects revenue of $12.6 billion to $13.6 billion for the September quarter, with a midpoint of $13.1 billion that was higher than analysts' average estimate of $12.65 billion. While semiconductors are currently exempt from U.S. President Donald Trump's sweeping global tariffs, Intel and its fellow chipmakers are facing customers who are reluctant about spending commitments amid widespread macroeconomic uncertainty. Customers have pulled shipments forward to the first half of the year amid trade uncertainty. Intel's second-quarter revenue for the period ended June 28 was flat at $12.9 billion, snapping a four-quarter streak of sales declines. The result beat estimates of $11.92 billion. Intel said job cuts contributed to restructuring costs of $1.9 billion in the second quarter. It recorded June quarter adjusted losses of 10 cents per share, compared with estimates of a profit of 1 cent per share. Its unadjusted loss was 67 cents per share in the second quarter, steeper than analyst estimates of a 26-cent-per-share loss.

Why Goldman Predicts ‘Revenue and EPS Beat' in Q3 for Apple Stock (AAPL)
Apple (AAPL) will report its Q3 FY25 earnings results on July 31, and Goldman Sachs analyst Michael Ng expects the company to report strong results in the quarter. Ng reaffirmed his Buy rating on the stock and kept his price target at $251, indicating a 17% upside from current levels. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. Ng, a 4.5-rated analyst on TipRanks, believes Apple's upcoming report will beat expectations on both revenue and earnings, helped by solid performance across its core business lines. He sees Apple's strong product pipeline and steady services growth as key drivers for future gains. Ng ranks 994 out of more than 9,880 analysts tracked by TipRanks. He has a success rate of 55%, with an average return per rating of 11.1% over a one-year timeframe. Analyst Sees Strong Services and Hardware Momentum The analyst expects Apple's Services revenue to grow by 11% year-over-year in the third quarter. He noted that the App Store spending remains strong, even with new rules letting users make payments outside the App Store. On the hardware side, the analyst sees strength across Apple's product lineup, including iPhones, Macs, iPads, and wearables. He believes these segments will show solid growth, helping to lift overall sales. In addition, he expects Apple to benefit from better gross margins, helped by easing 'tariff-related costs' and 'forex headwinds.' Looking ahead, Ng is optimistic about iPhone demand over the next year, fueled by U.S. carrier promotions and new product launches such as Apple Intelligence and new versions like the iPhone 17 Air and a foldable iPhone 18. However, the analyst warned that trade and tariff risks, along with potential pressure on Apple's advertising revenue, remain near-term concerns. What to Expect from AAPL's Q3 Earnings Wall Street analysts expect Apple to report earnings of $1.43 per share for Q3, up 2% from the year-ago quarter. Meanwhile, analysts project Q3 revenues at $89.1 billion, according to the TipRanks Analyst Forecasts Page. The figure marks a year-over-year increase of about 4%. Is AAPL a Good Stock to Buy Now? On TipRanks, Apple stock has a Moderate Buy consensus rating based on 13 Buys, 10 Holds, and one Sell assigned in the last three months. The average AAPL price target of $227.27 suggests an upside potential of 6.13% from its current price. Year-to-date, Apple stock is down 14%.
