Yep. That was the last Macbook that I would consider to be &quot;adequately repairable&quot;. I handed one of those down to my kid after replacing the optical drive with an SSD (creating a fusion drive) and loading it up with RAM. It&#x27;s still <i>very</i> usable as a desktop&#x2F;gaming Mac. I&#x27;ve even replaced the battery in it once (IIRC it was glued in, but in a way that was reasonably simple to extract).
