This is a great little machine, and is only on the block as I've got an M1 MBA for work.

There is a 'but' though, so PLEASE READ:

I bought this machine off eBay with a BIOS password. That means that its not possible to do a fresh wipe and re-install of the operating system. 

This hasn't impacted the use of the machine at all; and with a combination of user deletion and the Onyx Tool I've restored this machine back to default twice. The only thing I can't seem to figure out is the default dock for a new user; despite resetting the default user the custom layout persists.

If I can make it to an Apple Store in the near future, I intend to try and persuade them to take the BIOS password off it on the grounds of its age; but I'm reading that without a proof of purchase they won't do this.

In any case, apart from that (and a light scratch on the case and well loved charger; all pictured) the device is in premium condish for its age.

I have no idea on sale price, M1s seem to have destroyed the Intel market - but lets say £300 and you can all laugh at me.

I'm interested in buying/trading/PXing this for an iPad Mini 6 (the latest one). I've grown tired of waiting for Apple to release the 7!
