Oh no. No no no. No, no, no, absolutely not.

OS X fails to load by default after using Boot Camp. When you reboot the system, you need to manually enter the installer and select the macOS partition. Boot Camp also doesn't support WiFi on this device and can't find the OS X partition in Windows (I'm using wireless MX dongles, which prevents me from booting macOS manually). This device is a building block and you should not purchase it unless you absolutely need that particular device. It doesn't cost more than $50 in most cases, especially

Not cool. Computers and accessories

The device I received failed a thorough examination. It was MDM (Mobile Device Management). This means that whoever registered it with Apple is their company. It's similar to an iCloud lock, but if you instead erase the drive and proceed with installing the operating system (even on a different hard drive), the serial number will ping your Apple servers and prompt you to install profiles that match the company's settings correspond to. What disappointed me the most was that it was "updated" and

Inexpensive Mac for software testing

I bought a Mac Mini for software testing. It's cheaper and comes with a Core i5. Installed OS X 10.12. OS X 10.12 is too heavy for this machine. There isn't enough processing power to do simple things like drag and drop in the UI. The mouse is intermittent and the computer loses part of the drag and erases the document when the processor is busy redrawing the desktop. However, the machine did its job over SSH. I was able to build and test various non-GUI libraries from the command line and test

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Easily repairable

Lovingly and lovingly restored.

Wonderful purchase restored exactly as described and thanks to the seller Double Dex Refurbished. I was able to update to the latest version of Big Sur and that solved my problem of having to use the latest browser to view a growing number of websites. My previous Mac Mini was from 2006 so I think it's time for an upgrade. And it's fast enough for what I need, but I'm glad I have the 8G version. The exterior also looks almost new, so the camper is very satisfied. Thank you Revain and Double Dex

Pros
  • understandable even for the old ones
Cons
  • There are problems
