This.Thats a great deal.
Replace the RAM with 8gb or 16gb and put in a 256gb SSD and it will be perfect.
For R10k you can have a Macbook with 8gb RAM and 256GB SSD and then put the old 500GB hdd in the CDRom.
I have the previous version of that model from 2011 but with the above upgrades and I have never noticed it being slow.
Battery still lasts 5-6hours which is un heard of for a 5yr laptop.
This.
I have the same model that was on sale here. I put in 16GB RAM and a 250GB SSD and it feels faster during normal operation than my high end laptop...
Crucial RAM (labelled as "Mac") and Samsung Evo 750 SSD.What brand RAM and SSD did you use?
