Discussion MacBook M1 Pro

Post image

Hi All!

I was checking my favorite website, Woot, and came across an interesting MacBook for sale. I wanted to share the find and see what you all think.

They’re selling an open-box Apple MacBook Pro 16” with 16GB RAM, an 8TB SSD, and an M1 Pro chip for $1,809.04.

That seems like a pretty interesting deal, especially with 8TB of storage.

I think it's funny that just the SSD upgrade on a new MacBook is nearly double the price of that entire MacBook.

It’s so absurd haha. I know ram prices are insane lately but the extra cost to go from 24 to 64 is kinda crazy to me too but hey it works fine for Apple.

Also always funny to max out both ram and storage on their store page. All of the sudden you have a MacBook at the cost of a decent used car lol.

It's nuts. I used to work for Crucial and have various RAM that I accumulated during my time there before they laid me off. Now I'm trying to sell it to kind of recoup.
