For Sale: Model A1181, Macbook 4.1 early 2008. Just restored OSX 10.7 Lion onto a new SSD drive and working everything is working 100%. Boots to desktop in about 33 seconds.
Comes with genuine Apple 60W Magsafe AC adapter. No battery is included. New batteries are available on ebay for under $20.
Not much wear- some minor finish scratches in the top cover are the worst of it. LCD is in good shape and has sharp color, nice and bright. The Magsafe AC adapter has some tape over the ends of cable because insulation was looking a bit ragged- still works fine. The built in speakers sound good. Microphone works. Webcam has been tested. All the keys on the keyboard tested and working correctly. Wifi and ethernet and bluetooth tested and working well. Trackpad and mouse buttons are good. Hinges in good shape. Fans are not loud and only come on when needed. Slot load DVD drive works well, ejects and accepts discs reliably. It was used to re-install Lion and there were no errors or issues with it at all. Laptop runs well and has no known issues (besides being "vintage").
Keep in mind this laptop runs an older version of OSX and can't browse most websites that use SSL security with the original Safari software. Although you may be able to use a backported version of Firefox or the Brave browser. What it CAN do is run older programs, classic games, and older audio production software that were never designed to run on newer hardware.
