17" Apple MacBook Pro in excellent condition.
As far as I can see all is working absolutely fine, it has served me very well.
I have cleaned the laptop, wiped the hard drive, done a fresh install of Snow Leopard and upgraded the OS as far as it will go - 10.6.8. The disk check passed fine, and it runs well.
Physically there are no issues, no dead pixels on the huge screen as far as I can see, no major dents or scratches. It's ten years old but has been looked after. Tiny mark at the lock catch. Other than that, I replaced the original battery with a Floureon as they got good reviews, and didn't cost too much at £40. I would say that the charger has seen better days. I attempted a fix with some thermosetting rubber but it didn't work too well, so I would suggest you need a new one. That's the only issue with the laptop.
It's a 2006 model and has the following spec, but please ask for more details if required.
2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
120GB HD
Mac OSX v10.6.8 (Snow Leopard)
Any questions please do not hesitate to ask.
