Which model MacBook please? I need a new project as my old Lenovo Ideapad is dying. And I might still be able to use Snow Leopard.

Not Windows, but I got an almost new laptop out of a MacBook by putting Mint on it (and $15 of more RAM). Its biggest drawback is how much heavier it is than anything new. My next target is jailbreaking an old Chromebook I have.

I got lucky, apparently Apple specs say a max of 4GB like so many of the others, but for some reason this odd motherboard will run 8GB. And I can confirm, 8GB works.

Just did the same thing with a 2015 Intel MacBook Pro. It runs great, had some issues with screen flickering but I think it was only happening while using Remmina for RDP and it seems to have gone away by excluding Remmina from display scaling (retina display). So far pretty good battery life too…
