Well I have just purchased a second hand Probook, 4530, model A6E08EA#ABU from e-bay.
Going to be a few days before it arrives.
I have started reading the guides,
down loaded probook installer, Uni beast 2.0.1, Multi Beast Mini-SSDT Duallink.aml and now re-downloading 10.8.4.
i had previously purchased it for my Mac pro Tower..but did not liek it so have put the Tower back to 10.6.8...ML Notes and Contacts are nto for me at all..so had to d/grade to SL.
Want to buy a real 15v inch MBP, but can't afford it at the moment so thought about a Hacinstosh laptop..and within hours of getting that thought, found this site and the info on the ProBook.
Have the latest v4 BIOS downloading now for the ProBook and am off to town later to get a new USB stick...funny how you can't find one in the house when you need one..usually they are everywhere .
So..what else can I do to prepare?
Or is some bright spark going to pipe up and tell me..."Oh ..did you miss the thread...XYZ>.." that particularly states that the version of the proBook you have bought won't work ?
A little confused as to what I need for the screen driver...if anything extra needed at all... Have seen talk of ..if you have upgraded screen resolution ..you need...XYZ..but this will be a stock machine..Model A6E08EA#ABU.
What else can I do to prepare? more RAM? SSD ? maybe keen to get stuck in , want to get prep'd
Many thanks
Neil
