the old 2006 macbook is pretty much useless as a macbook these days so i stuffed it full of ram, and 256gb solid state drive and installed native windows 10 pro. yeah. i ditched the macOS since the version highest is el capitan you can install on the thing that OS is dead so I installed first Windows 7 Pro x64 it ran fine. i then wiped it and installed Windows 10 Pro x64. it runs good but not great. its ok though, at least now the hardware lives for another day. the unit i got was a bit beat up but it doesnt matter much to me. its a pain to take apart though. some things dont work right in Windows like audio. you can get audio out the headphone jack but not the speakers. (i'm an IT guy i know my way around in machines) the Trackpad sort of sucks cause you cant just tap to click you have to use the stupid buttons and you cant right click. I have an external mouse for all of that. Cool thing was there was no hardware hacking involved to install windows. just boot to a standard usb stick with the windows 10 setup iso on it and you're golden. boots to the usb just fine. i took the optical drive out since i never use them anyway. dropped in a drive caddy and stuck in a 500gb SSHD spinner for storage. works like a champ.Read full review

I really like the sheer slickness of this laptop, and it seems to run great, also the battery in this one seems to be in working order. The only downside , or thing I don’t like, is that that iOS is so old that you can’t sign into your iTunes app or other things like office , but other then that it’s alright

This Mac book was great for what I wanted it for, my older sister only uses email and browses the web once in a while. Please be aware these machines cannot be upgraded past the Lion OS, but I needed a solid laptop she could use to check her emails and these are great for that. If you need a simple laptop that is easy to operate, dependable and for someone who is not really computer literate in sense of the term these are what you need.

This is a great beginner laptop I recommend it and for you to invest in a new battery and charger for it other than that I'm very pleased with this labtop period.

I received my macboon with no battery in it. There is a difference between a bad battery and no battery, these people are simple scammers. Also the charger is some cheap Chinese ripoff.
