When most people buy a used MacBook Pro, they try to find one that suits their needs and fits their budget. But I'm an idiot so I bought a giant pile of MacBooks from a bulk listing on eBay!

Kronix My suggestion is that this is computers delivered in by some students after a school year. Then the school sell it to get some of the value back, and the school don’t bother testing and fixing anything

@hasanbanoon5091 4 года назад

Yeah, Same as Mr. Fjelldal said. Many schools get rid of older hardware. I used to buy and repair school disposal computers. Most of the time there is nothing wrong with them, other than the hard drive being removed for confidentiality reasons. Sometimes, they might even have the hard drive which is completely wiped clean with utilities that fill it with zeroes like KillDisk.

@Gossip Heart When I was in college, I had to take out student loans, I also worked for the school, and my parents helped me pay my way through (tuition, housing , bills etc). I graduated about 6 years ago, I've been over paying on my student loans since (sometimes by a $1000 over the monthly minimum) and I still owe $10,000. I have a Bachelors Degree. My sister OTOH continued to grad school, and I remember the day she told me her student loans passed her mortgage. Schooling is stupid expensive here in the US.

These MacBooks are great. They are, unlike newer ones, upgradeable. Putting in 2Tb SSDs would be smart for anyone who buys these. And swapping out the memory for 8Gb or 16Gb from OWC would make them fly again. 2012 was last year you could upgrade memory yourself. The 2012's also support Catalina!!

Yes it was just a loose cable even though it did not appear loose it must have been because after gently pushing on it both ends putting all those impossibly tiny screws back the machine booted up.

Great job Mac re-animator. Dr. Frankenstein would be proud! I used to this kind of thing for a living on the Windows side of the OS world and it never ceases to amaze me how well parts will swap between PCs!

I bought similar lot of 8 macbook pros from 2009 to 2011 for only $200 without chargers and seller says no idea if they're working or not without visible damages and without missing parts. I can't wait for them to be delivered.

MacBook #1 was owned by the platonic ideal of the 2000's MacBook user. If it weren't for the fact the "Eat More Kale" sticker was on the bottom I'd say it was all done ironically.

The integrated graphic controller and chipset in that specific model MBP 13 the Nvidia 320M was really pretty good in its day. Nvidia made the 320M specifically for Apple and it outperformed the integrated 9400 graphics of the larger Macbook Pro models that year.

The 2009 macbooks Imacs and Mac minis are indestructible. I got 2 macbooks with mojave and catalina installed an Imac with big sur installed and a mac mini with monterrey. They still work fine. All dedicated to music production .
