Really bad using the list price from 2017 to call this a bargain.

Next you’ll be saying an iPhone X is still worth $999.

2017? isnt that the crappy dual core model? Sounds like a bad deal to buy a 2-core processor in 2022

Sold out now. But at $599 would have been a good deal.

At least it has an SSD, but even so, at $599, it still seems like a high price, considering how underpowered a dual-core processor is in 2022. And it's probably on its last legs in terms of macOS updates. Fair price, in my opinion, would be closer to $399.

I am personally using this model temporarily until the new iMac comes out. I am borrowing from a friend so luckily didn’t have to waste my money. But this thing is super slow! It’s like getting an iPhone 6s nowadays. Yes it technically works but you can’t run a lot of things well and 8GB Ram isn’t enough to have more than a couple things open.
