    Nice I also have an older laptop as well, its a thinkpad with 2nd gen i7, ssd and windows 10. But the problem is that nobody in the family wants it/they dont know anybody to give it to, so its just laying around, and for 50$ its not worth selling... Also unrelated but with windows 11 its more difficult to not use the microsoft account... lots of people dont use outlook and they wont figure out how to use microsoft store if something is missing (like intel control panel/other panels or apps) many people still use google to download from online websites

    I have a hp laptop that's a little over 10 years old with a spinning hard drive. The dude who sold it to me was a smoker who smoked around it but after just a month or so of me having it & not smoking around it, the smell was completely gone.

      I just hate smoker machines. That smell just gets to me, I can't stand it.

      @@MacintoshMen Yeah, the smell sticks to them for very long but if you don't smoke, it'll be gone after a while. I know because the laptop I have now was a smoker machine.

      It's so much work for only getting it maybe to run mediocre on Mac OS. If at all.

      Is this safe? I remember you did a video a while back on mavericks and I’m wondering where you got that install file. I can’t really find one that seems legitimate so yeah..

      @@WEBGamer23 It's probably fine. But yeah I understand your concern; it's just laughable that Apple can't provide a freaking official download link for their own OS which isn't even that old. They surely could afford to host one damn file but oh well, that's Apple for you.
