The amount of waste here is shameful. There are so many kids in Australia that can't afford a laptop but so many good ones are just tossed into landfill. This video pleases me know end. I think you're a super cool guy for doing this. Cheers Andrew
Cheng Teoh When I was in 2nd grade, I found a full cart full of 2009 White Polycarbonate MacBooks. A large banner over it was labeled Goodwill. I asked about them, I was told they would be donated, a few weeks later, I found some in the trash. I didn’t take any though, because I was young.
I've always been a massive tech person, and my school knew I was smart, so they made me strip help 30 dell sff towers and wouldn't let me keep anything. Teacher also told me I didn't need to remove the CPU(As she pointed as the PSU). I was stuffing my pockets with 2GB DDR3 modules and i3's lmfaooo
Public schools usually don't let anyone have their old computers because technically they're government property. That didn't stop me from taking a Macintosh SE/30 right out of the dumpster.
I think giving them to viewers is a great way to interact with your community. Some people genuinely need something for classes (including me as well) and it would help out a ton!
@@BrianMui That's just waste of money even if apple gives discounts to schools. Chromebooks and their terminal do enough to teach basic school stuff even if they want to give some basics of coding to kids.
I wish that our school gave us macs we only have crappy windows 7 computers in our computer lab and some classes have chrome books that stay in the room
I remember when my school were giving away a lot of Quad Core i5 Laptop's, not the best but still good enough, around 300 of them.... Me and my friend took about 12 of them with us, we did get permision to have ALL of them but they ended up just taking them to a tip in the end (if I remember rightly) which is a huge shame... most of them worked fine and would have been awesome to give to a school that can't afford tech or even give them away to children who need a laptop at home, especialy in 2020. this was 4 years ago though.
That doesn't make sense to me. These i5s from 10 years ago are still selling for £100+ on ebay over here in the UK. Surely, the school could make some money by at least selling them all to a third party for a bulk price.
@@Retrohertz That's what I thought, I am in the UK too, They said they were giving a few away but from what I saw, they were all scrapped. I mean one laptop could sell for around £50-100, multiply that by about 300 and you have a decent some of money. Guess schools are not as smart as they think hah
@@Retrohertz here in Germany where I live some schools don't even own their computers, but have some other company who handles their stuff. I have heard they change computers every three years or so and they have to be destroyed as they aren't allowed to sell them or give them away. I think there was an elementary school and they had desktops with i3s that had been used for a total of 80 hours.
Can only say true to students treating PC with no care. Worked in an IT department in the County Hall (Big building where the Mayor also were), and I repaired the all the school county PC (Around 10k all in all). And those kids either downloaded sketchy stuff or did damage it in weird ways. :P
School: Tosses out 15 MacBooks Me: Hoping to have few though . *Either giveaway or at a negligible cost* - Not for personal use but for the needy students who can't afford to buy one.
Oh yeah. The Victoria lockdown. We have to deal with Stage 3 lockdown while Melbourne has to deal with Stage 4 lockdown. I also have to deal with the border regions, so I'm not even allowed to leave the border region either unfortunately. I've also gotten into fixing laptops thanks to you! :D

Ah, so you guys take Coronavirus seriously over there, as you should. Here in America we’ve opened up everything and said fuck it. Our “leaders” are pretty stupid.
I am in awe of both your knowledge and skills. I'd like to get 2 of your refurbished MacBook Airs, 1 for myself and 1 for a friend of mine. Good job fixing those machines.
These 2014 Macbook Airs have really nice construction and are super light. Too bad they have huge bezels. I also have a problem with mine that causes light orange "hotspots" on the screen. Doesn't make it unusable though.

I hope you are doing well and safe and sound, despite of the challenges we are facing and experiencing amid the COVID-19 pandemic. I am glad to know that you are safe since you are one of the greatest TH-cam video creators I am following and currently subscribed to. I am a big fan of yours from the Philippines. I am Jerico Alba, a 2nd Year Mass Communication student and I watch how you restore PCs and other devices using your iconic eucalyptus oil and your skills in restoration of PC components (e.g. the laptop from 1990s, and repairing many Macbooks). However, you told from one of your videos that you have so many laptops that you have restored and you have no idea of where and who to give it to? And have you mentioned that it can be sent to viewers? I am one of your greatest fans since I subscribed you when you still have less than 100K subscribers, and I love sending likes to your videos. I have also recommended you to my friends and luckily, they are now an avid fan of yours. I also learned a lot of things in restoring a PC and laptop. However, the profits I earn from fixing them only benefits to our daily livelihood, and I still struggle for online classes due to the COVID-19 pandemic, for I only rent a laptop to use, just to pursue my education. I hope you can notice my message and be one of the lucky fans that will be able to receive a free restored MacBook :( Moreover, the video was uploaded in September 15, which is my birthday. I wish you a happy holidays, my friend! If so, this will be very lucky and best holiday for me. Thank you very much and I will still continue to be one of your avid fan no matter what! I love you and your videos! :)
Awesome video! Love that you can breathe life into old hardware and keep it out of a landfill! Interested in a laptop or two for a non-profit research cluster. Thanks.
Nice repairing video. I love when stuff gets repaired. Also, even though I don't use Apple products, it's heartbreaking of how some of those laptops were so misused, and to think they are school issued, it is mind boggling. If I had one of these when I was younger, I would keep it very clean, because it would be my personal computer and the first ever laptop I could call mine was some outdated Acer that I had to put Kubuntu in to make it work, and even then it eventually died out beyond my powers.
I've been in the same boat. The parents had the option to pay for their students to hire a laptop from my school, but I already had my own that did well enough throughout my high school life and I treated well. That being said, if my parents ever did go ahead with hiring one, I'd be treating it like it's worth a million dollars because it's still someone else's property that I need to look after. It astounds and disgusts me how some students treated these poor Macbooks.
Same here, I used a Core 2 Duo Vaio until 2 years ago. It's still in pretty good condition, but the workloads of university (SolidWorks & similar) are too much for it so it had to be retired. I think someone's first computer should always be a crappy one, so they appreciate the upgrade when it comes...

so satisfying to watch, I enjoy getting school computers have not had many apple computers but the ones I have had were easy fixes just a fresh install, and good to go.
My friend dropped a weight on his school computer and the whole glass screen is shattered. The LCD screen is fine though. By the end of the school year we will have to return our computers back to school. So I wonder what will happen when they see my friend’s computer 😂
What kind of school gives Macbooks to students? My school is using the cheapest possible laptops that can barely even run Microsoft word and are literally falling apart
Hi thank you for sharing.. I would like to know the tools you are using for cleaning the keyboard and screens brands to buy for my personal use? Any recommendations
Nope, you can install whatever OS you want on your own hardware, DESPITE what Microsoft or Apple (and probably Google) want you to believe. Now, a waste of a MacBook Air? Yes, that I'd agree with (and I'm a Linux engineer)
3:00 We were on a vacation with my girlfriend last year, and the luggage (already cracked before) was completely obliterated after going through the airport. It was held together only by clean wrap we put over it - more a bag, than a case, at that point. Before going home I've used A LOT of adhesive tape - on the inside and outside of the bag. And it survived the trip back! Even stayed together in one piece. I worship packing tape as a deity now.
Got to know the right people... i'm the one who got them for Nathan to use in this video.. i know the IT guy at a Private College here in South Australia, he called me to say they were throwing out a few laptops and would i want them?, on arrival i was shocked to see they were throwing out around 150 of them. Naturally i grabbed them, most worked the rest i sent to Nathan to do this video...Also the school wanted to bin 25 x 24" pc monitors, i grabbed those as well, all working perfectly and sent on to those who needed one. Check some of your local schools and ask if they have any they don't use anymore... doesn't hurt to ask.
@@dits791 okay. The downside is that I'm in India. They have bunch of Celeron pcs (2010 versions 😡) and that's all. I have already asked them multiple times to at least upgrade them to Core i3 but they don't really care that the students are not able to run the computers smoothly. Plus they always sell their old parts (in a rare case when they upgrade) to tech hoarders.
Ill send my notebook to you fix lol, It battery haves almost 2500 cycles,the hdd haves almost 17000 hours of time on, the hdd is broken so i need to make the computer on everytime,the display is with bad pixels in some places of the screen and other things lol

Did you check PPBUS G3Hot on those dead boards?
James LaBarre I always check my PPBus.
It’s true, sometimes I bang the keys and the mousepad really hard when my chrome book won’t work
Cromebooks are garbage
Alex Welt yes Windows is better
@@alexwelt I once tried to use a chromebook. Never again.
@@starlitstreet yes

17:34 a job for the greatest technician that's ever lived 🗿
Me: Watches this video on my same MacBook Air.
MacBook Air: Don't let me become one of those!
If you do a giveaway i would definitely love to have one for school use😊
Hmm
Cool video! I like how was the macbooks filthy and you cleaned them up and they looked new,good job!
4:27 Windows 10 running on a Macbook Air.
Everyone: Wait, that's illegal.
boot camp, its pretty easy to do so , you just need free disk space
Last time i was this early Psivewri had long hair
so satisfying to watch, I enjoy getting school computers have not had many apple computers but the ones I have had were easy fixes just a fresh install, and good to go.
I wish i had one of these :(
Me to
Psivewri you are so lucky to get free macbooks.
I'm switching from Windows to an iMac, which means I'll need a decent Laptop. do you have anymore of the MacBook Airs available??
Most computers unfortunately don't have decent specs.
I’m just wondering what sort of punishment that kid got for throwing that MacBook Air and bending it
I know someone who would do that
My friend dropped a weight on his school computer and the whole glass screen is shattered. The LCD screen is fine though. By the end of the school year we will have to return our computers back to school. So I wonder what will happen when they see my friend’s computer 😂
He won't get in trouble it's called air ._. I'm sorry for the bad joke
@@ballazyt6587 haha the fact it's a terrible joke makes it funny
@@CherryTv_CUP xD
The kids liked tearing off the power button alot
You are so amazing in restoring devices.
Damn I'd love to have one of those MacBooks, I really need one for school
I need one for university I cant afford one though lol
@@stephendowdican7589 get windows or linux laptop they are better and cheaper
When the video doesn’t have any dislikes
No sugar candy

Dislikes are from people who payed for a macbook air
@@cpthetechie6705 yeah really but i appreciate the mind of charity

Everyone’s talking about how many MacBooks he got but no one is talking about the windows 10 MacBooks I’ve never seen that before
They used bootcamp. I have a bootcamp partition actually.
to look rich.
My brother is useing win 10 on macbook for vr :v
--- EMERGENCY MEETING ---
the macbooks with windows 10 are impostors!
ForTheWin48 LOL 😂
australia: MacBooks
argentina: *netbooks del gobierno detonadas*
En el otro video dice que eran de una escuela privada.
Schools are notorious for wasteful spending.
I have 2 early 2014 i5 laptops. Still running like champs today.
What kind of school gives Macbooks to students? My school is using the cheapest possible laptops that can barely even run Microsoft word and are literally falling apart
I need a newer computer. My newest, a 2010 Imac is broken. I would love one of these.
repair it, lolz
Mac: I need a good cleaning
Eucalyptus oil: *allow me to introduce myself*
I want one of those laptops
Me too
Beg forever then...
me too
Me too lmao
But one then lol
8:02 when you see an old looking symbol you've never seen before... you messed up pretty bad................ lol
THE MACINTOSH!!! WHAT THE HELL THE SAD MAC
8:02 THE SAD MAC!
That was actually edited into the video
I'm dying rn bc the first mac boots into windows 10
psivewri:

me:
how many warranties can psivewri brake
DO YOU SELL MAC BOOK YOU FIXING BECAUSE I AM INTERESTED TO BUY
i just bought a 2015 air as my main mac yesterday so im still hyped. And heck yeah! Another Aussie boy!🇦🇺
Imagine if those students were given Chromebooks
They would be gone reduced to atoms
@@albamoreiraformiga9136 only in the USA though
If we did this, our school would get our parents to buy them new laptops. So that's why all of our laptops look brand new
Hi thank you for sharing.. I would like to know the tools you are using for cleaning the keyboard and screens brands to buy for my personal use? Any recommendations
If I ever get a MacBook I’ll treat that like the ring from lord of the rings
“My precious “.......
I treat my 2010 macbook pro like that
@@thecircutandgameguy1018 ahahhahah
4:26 1st Macbook Air Boots on Windows 10.
Me: _Wait, that's illegal._
You can install windows on Mac with boot camp.
Nope, you can install whatever OS you want on your own hardware, DESPITE what Microsoft or Apple (and probably Google) want you to believe.
Now, a waste of a MacBook Air? Yes, that I'd agree with (and I'm a Linux engineer)
3:00 We were on a vacation with my girlfriend last year, and the luggage (already cracked before) was completely obliterated after going through the airport. It was held together only by clean wrap we put over it - more a bag, than a case, at that point. Before going home I've used A LOT of adhesive tape - on the inside and outside of the bag. And it survived the trip back! Even stayed together in one piece. I worship packing tape as a deity now.
2:46 lol to me it looks like a poor mans server
Wow I Wish I could have one I could never afford one
Give me one.
Yeah, those rich kids didn't appreciate their macbook. I don't know why.
R/choosingbeggers
4:27 making a Apple and Microsoft fight more beautiful now😂
Man I wish India had dumpsters in which people just dump perfectly fine technology.
29 free MacBook Airs. Here I can't even afford a decent Windows laptop. 😭
Got to know the right people... i'm the one who got them for Nathan to use in this video.. i know the IT guy at a Private College here in South Australia, he called me to say they were throwing out a few laptops and would i want them?, on arrival i was shocked to see they were throwing out around 150 of them. Naturally i grabbed them, most worked the rest i sent to Nathan to do this video...Also the school wanted to bin 25 x 24" pc monitors, i grabbed those as well, all working perfectly and sent on to those who needed one.
Check some of your local schools and ask if they have any they don't use anymore... doesn't hurt to ask.
@@dits791 okay. The downside is that I'm in India. They have bunch of Celeron pcs (2010 versions 😡) and that's all. I have already asked them multiple times to at least upgrade them to Core i3 but they don't really care that the students are not able to run the computers smoothly. Plus they always sell their old parts (in a rare case when they upgrade) to tech hoarders.
If I have that many mac book for free, I would salvage every battery and make a good battery for my UPS
EDIT : Also salvage every single ssd
Why would schools put windows on a Mac lol
Not to sound like a beggar,
