A friend is giving me a MacBook Pro!
A rather newer one, a 2015 with a Retina display, as a matter of fact! My plan was to buy a 2012 MBP since it could be serviced, and that was going to run $600-800, so this will be quite a savings.
One slight problem: the battery is bulging, and it's quite a PITB to replace, so that's going to be a chunk of change to replace. That's why I'm getting it: he replaced it with a new Air, and knew that my MBP blew up last year, and knew I'd benefit from it.

He says it works quite well, so it shouldn't be too bad. It's not something I'd've bought for myself, but I'll certainly take it as a donation!
