Are you only doing macbook air/pro

[Glenn]

larossmann do you only repair MBP/MBA or you do imac and mac mini?

I do Macbook and iMac. iMacs are always a PITA cause GPUs are hard to find and they are big and heavy, so I prefer to work on MacBooks. 13" Air is my favorite.

Whay you like air better then pro?

 

[dukefawks]

Cause the 13" pro is an 8 year old design and the boards are always more corroded than the Airs. The Air is just a nicer design in all ways.

Oh and also no memory slots for idiots to fuck up either on Airs!

imacs fall into 3 categories

1) HDD replacement(good easy money)
2) GPU issues that you'll never/rarely find a good GPU for(avoid)
3) DIY HDD replacement that went wrong meaning ripped LCD connector(good easy money but pry more $$ out of customer for their fuckup and additional work)

Do 1 and 3, avoid 2. Also avoid miserable open ended problems on them. You won't see liquid damage on an iMac unless someone uses it on the beach.. so less common.
