This of course depends on why you buy it (and what price you get!). A second hand MacBook pro is almost never worth it, as it's mostly not very much cheaper than the current low end model - which it at best will match - plus you will not get the warranty and of course risk hidden damages.

A new MacBook pro might however be of interest to you. You will buy into the Apple cult and as a member of that you will feel air of exclusive design and of being someone special. You will have paid more for the hardware specs than you would if you bought a generic laptop with equivalent specs, but you will have a piece of hardware with parts that are thoroughly integrated. Or at least is should to be. Be ware though, that the cult and exclusivity is rapidly getting tarnished, since Apple has been tightening the control of what software is being used and by whom! All though this might be considered a side effect of App Store and iCloud it is still a fact, a growing concern and certainly a reason to think twice.
