    Goddamn $1K for a 6 year old used laptop with a 4th gen CPU.
    That is a disastrous deal and I hope no one is buying this!

      My 7 year old iMac at work still produces great professional video and VR creation. They are still good for something. Though it does have 16GB of ram.

        That's got desktop-class CPU and graphics though

  Why on earth is this being upvoted. This is from 2014! A fourth generation CPU is absolutely stone age.

  Absolutely crap deal.

  $999 for a Haswell processor? People are really desperate to get a piece of the Apple pie.

  4GB RAM in 2020. I hope whoever purchases is not planning to install Google Chrome!

  ~1k for a 2014 laptop - yeah nah, not a deal.

  Why buy a second-hand and outdated apple product when you could get a brand new and faster windows machine for the same or even less money. I guess it's all about the status that comes with it. Apple fanboys never cease to amaze me

    unix os is good for devs

      Plus one can enjoy all the Intel security holes, which are OS agnostic, from Haswell onwards.

      You know you can install Linux on a "Windows" machine as well.

    I use both Windows and macOS, I prefer the latter and happy to pay a premium for the pleasure. Couldn't care less if there was an Apple logo on the back of the screen so people know what I'm using, would happily run a hackintosh if it could be set and forget with everything working as it should (they're getting much better though). I want the OS I enjoy the most. We each have our preferences and we should respect that.

    Having said that, I could not recommend this deal, I just don't see the value in this "deal"

  With all due respect but that's not good at all. I bought and sold a better specced 2015 version for less.
