    Late 2008 Macbook Pro No Power On/Charge

    I have a late 2008 Macbook Pro that hasn't been used for over a year, that I need to use now because I had to RMA my current laptop. It didn't power on the last time I tried. I just figured the battery was dead from not being used for a while. The charger indicator light would turn on when I...

    Late 2008 Mac and life without the latest OS

    I have a late 2008 Mac. It's obviously not supported by Sierra.

    El Capital Boot Time 2'30"?!

    -- Late 2008 Aluminum full-Body Macbook (13"), with 8GB ram and over 25GB free space -- I updated to El Capitan a while ago, and everything works fine. My only concern is booting time - I like the fact that now there's a load-bar on boot, under the Apple sign, but I noticed it takes...
