Why would you even upgrade the imac pro? Apple products are DESIGNED to be impossible to upgrade (except for the RAM maybe). But it does sound like a funny video!

Linus: Hey repairing and opening the MAC was a pain in the ass, let's never do it again.
Also Linus: Hey guys we can open the MAC and slot it up with some sweet ram.

And why excactly weren't you guys able to upgrade it back when Louis Rossmann came to fix it ? I mean, you had it open anyways and he could have helped with it ?

You can take a look at all of the Tech that I own and have owned over the years in my About Me section and on my Profile.

 

I'm Swiss and my Mother language is Swiss German of course, I speak the Aargauer dialect. If you want to watch a great video about Swiss German which explains the language and outlines the Basics, then click here.

 

If I could just play Videogames and consume Cool Content all day long for the rest of my life, then that would be sick.

Because changing any more variables than you have to at once is a bad idea.

 

If we had put in a CPU and RAM that we aren't sure will work, along with a motherboard and power supply that we aren't sure will work, then if the machine didn't post, we wouldn't know what the problem was.

I don't know about anyone else, but I kind of liked the auditory feedback so I could tell what was a voiceover and what was part of the actual footage. It made it sound kind of cool... I'm not sure how else to explain it haha

Was half expecting there to be like a joke cut at the end where Linus on on the phone to Apple support

 

"Hey Apple, it's Linus here, you know that iMac Pro ...."

its 100% illegal for apple to do but no one has the will or probably the money to sue them.

Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act says it is illegal.

thanks 1975 law everyone forgot about
