    With all that money you saved, you can pick up an SSD and 8 gigs of RAM

    Nope he was selling Unibody Aluminum models. They looks just like the brand new ones, I never would've been able to tell they were 4 years old unless he told me.
    VERY VERY good deal and I'd pick one up in a heartbeat, also you can get the Keyboard backlight from ebay sellers dirt cheap if its not already installed.

    6gb I believe is the official limit however you can get them to recognize 8gb pretty easily its possible they may already be on the correct firmware to allow it.

    1. Throw an SSD in there
    2. Get rid of that internal CD drive and replace it with a regular Hard drive*
    3. upgrade to 8gb and


    You will have one AWESOME music machine.

    *You can get an official Optibay - but its overpriced, ebay sellers are doing "clones" for under $20 .
