I hope my reaction showed how much this meant to me. I was already ecstatic just to be in a video, but when you told me that it was my computer, I think my reaction speaks for itself. Thanks for being a great friend, and thank you so much for a new computer!

I love the fact that you gave this MacBook to a friend in need who will obviously appreciate it. However, I’d sure like to see a cost breakdown on the parts you ordered from FleaBay versus the going price of a nice condition comparable model to see if it is actually a wise choice to rebuild or to just salvage the parts.

@bowling4life700 3 года назад

These Late 2013 15" Retina MacBook's really hold up to time. These things breeze through web browsing and day to day tasks. I was able to pick one of these up locally for $200 and there's no way any $200 windows laptop even compares to these. Sad to see it wont be supported in Mac OS Monterey though.

@ConorORegan 3 года назад

I always enjoy these videos, it always astonishing to me that you can repair these MacBooks

@NormanF62 3 года назад

Older MBPs are repairable. Later ones are deliberately designed and built for the landfill. This is the end of a series of ecologically conscious MBPs Apple built. They’re classics and repairing the trashed late 2013 one was well worth Luke’s time.

@@jhonjhon1740 We only see patchers up to Catalina on dosdude1's personal website, and Catalina is the latest and last version of macOS X. There is no Big Sur patcher, meaning it will be likely there will be no Monterey patcher that will be released by dosdude1. We could be wrong, for all we know.

@wullfyularen3044 3 года назад

I am still waiting for the video where Luke shows us the dead MacBook and then states the question: "So, can we repair this Macbook?" and than says: "No". And it all just in 1 first minute and the other 10 to 15 minutes are just black screen with some background music lofi or chill or something. That would be the best prank, idea for April 1 btw.

Great job! The evolution of MBP's within the last few years is simply amazing, and with that; Apple's clear intention of making their laptops unrepairable seems beyond evil and greedy.

@thelorax9622 3 года назад

Thanks for your opinion, but if you look after them, Apple's machines seem to last a bit longer than a comparable PC. I have a 13" Macbook Pro from 2009 that still works and am typing this on a 2014 iMac which is running like it was new. If they were so "evil and greedy", wouldn't Apple make their computers less reliable and long-lasting?
