macbook pro "13 2011

  1. JnL

    What's the last year of MacBook Pros with native XP drivers, or at least enough to be usable?

    I have an Early 2011 13" MBP. Last of the Snow Leopard era, and technically last that can run a BootCamp version capable of running XP. What I'm wondering is if the cutoff is the 2009s, 2010s, or 2011s.

This wasn't a huge issue for me, until the next one happened: 2. Now, recently it has started to run super laggy when the charger...
