  Will you take an old 2013 macbook air?

    Absolutely!

    I love giving old hardware a new life.

    Once I’ve finished tinkering, and if it’s fully functional, I give them to poor families who can’t afford to buy a laptop for their kids.

    Sadly, there are a lot of those here in Appalachia.

      Recently bought a 2015 MacBook with great specs, running Ventura via OCLP and purring like a kitten 👌

      I’ve thought about starting a charity doing exactly that.

        Yeah, the ones with dead ports become part of my network as either storage or some sort of home server.
