MacBook Pro (15", Early 2008)
This is my second Early '08 - the original one I got back in 2017 is a lower spec 2.4GHz unit that's got the fixed revision graphics(!!). Problem is, it's in really poor cosmetic condition. This one is a lot better - I'll just swap the motherboards if this one's GPU kicks it.
