I bought a PILE of 32 MacBooks for just $700! This is by far the largest scale project I've ever done on the channel with over 100 pounds of MacBooks to fix. In today's video we'll try to get as many of these machines working as possible without spending a single dollar to do it! Then, next week in part two we're going to up the game even further and try to restore all the working MacBooks to nice, usable condition! This should be a fun ride!
