I have a 2012 MacBook Pro purchased brand new from apple, and is presently the only non retina design, and the last model with an integrateded CD ROM that apple still offers. It is not the manufacturing plant configuration, as it does have the 2.9 Ghz i7 updated from the 2.5 Gz i5, as well as 8GB of ram instead of the stock 4, and 1 TB HDD instead of the stock 500 GB.
Currently it is operating on Mavericks as well as has a partition setup with Yosemite, however it will be erased and delivered with Mavericks on it because Yosemite is still in its Beta phases.
I am ready to fulfill however I require this sold, as I have actually acquired a new 15in. Retina model.
Price with the setup presently at the Apple store is 1549 plus tax and shipping. This is your opportunity to SAVE 500 dollars! Great for pleasure, work, or school.
