My dad bought a Mac pro like as soon as it came out. I thought it was a good idea back then because I didn't know much about tech. After watching a whole lotta ltt I realized how much of a scam it is. I told my dad he should sell it but he doesn't wanna go through the hassel of selling it. Any tips on what I should say to him to convince him to sell it?

Why should he sell it? Also what mac pro? What specs? Why would he be better off with a different computer?

2 questions:

Does it meet his needs?

Is, there any problems with it?

 

If your answers are 1. Yes and 2. No

Then I would say there is no need to sell it.
