Okay so I found this old MacBook (I mean OLD, it even has a hot-swappable battery and an optical drive) and I have no idea if it’s even worth the effort of installing anything on it. What do you guys think I could do with it?
Edit: note that this is just from a live usb, it has 120GB storage
I don’t know anything about Mac hardware, but if it’s possible to put another 2gb of RAM in there and an SSD, it should be fine for web browsing.
I did something similar for a friend. I spent about $25 on hardware to put equivalent upgrades in an old laptop that had a single core celeron processor. I installed linux mint xfce. It ran firefox fine but couldn’t quite play smooth video on YouTube. It was otherwise usable. A dual core should be workable.
It should be absolutely possible to put a data SSD in, that model also has an unofficial max ram capacity of 6gb
