They use a financial company (which is really just a subsidiary of Apple) called Barclaycard.

Barclaycard is ok, not much different than any other financial institution or credit company. Not better, but not any worse either. If you spend over $ 999 you will get 0% interest for a whole year, so that’s not too bad of a deal. My dealings with them so far have been pretty good.

I only got 6 months no interest because my iPad 2 was only $ 600.

On a scale of 1-10, I’d give them a 7. Just make sure you can pay off your computer in 12 months, or the interest will jump up to a crazy high amount- and it wont be worth it.
