I have a mid 2012 MacBook Pro with like a year left on the warranty, how much could i sell it for?

 

I was thinking of getting a T43 IBM thinkpad and putting in a PATA SSD but i use autodesk inventor and if it had 2GB or DDR2 would it work? I hate lenovo with a burning passion so what do u all think? Otherwise what is a QUALITY, i really do hence QUALITY laptop that i could buy under 600$, i have 16GB of DDR3 laptop RAM and a few SSDs laying around so HDD and RAM amount is irrelevant.

Laptop: Thinkpad W520 i7 2720QM 24GB RAM 1920x1080 2x SSDs Main Rig: 4790k 12GB Hyperx Beast Zotac 980ti AMP! Fractal Define S (window) RM850 Noctua NH-D15 EVGA Z97 FTW with 3 1080P 144hz monitors from Asus Secondary: i5 6600K, R9 390 STRIX, 16GB DDR4, Acer Predator 144Hz 1440P

why would you get such an old laptop

Because i have thinkpads from pre 1999 that still work fine. They are not made in china and are good quality.

For running Autodesk inventor, this is a very bad idea... Maybe look into a T420? ThinkPads didn't really get Lenovo'd until the generation after that.

thanks
