was obtained.
Of course I'm also still running a PowerBook G4, so maybe my idea of "running fine" differs from everyone else's.

Nobody should. They are machines built with decade old hardware.

I need to replace my 2011 iMac, it's dying. I might buy the 2017 model though

Yeah, there is a brand premium but they are quality devices and the service is better than most.
