It has served me long and well part of that reason I believe is due to the fact that I could upgrade and repair the machine when required. I have since replaced the drive twice, changed the battery, replaced the top case and keyboard, repaired the magsafe adapter, and upgraded the RAM to extend the service life of this machine.

The machine is failing me unfortunately, ie keyboard spacebar issues, abysmal battery life, magsafe adapter ripped, etc. I am a Mac user of 6.5 years with my Macbook Black 2007 running Snow Leopard. *Will be performing the upgrade for both RAM and SSD myself based on information from iFixit *Will be using my current SSD 120GB in the new MBP
