so happy it finally all worked out

Last month my mom gifted me this MacBook Pro for my 21st birthday. I was absolutely stunned at first because I never owned an laptop, let alone an apple one. But after realizing that it’s a mid 2012 model and I wasn‘t even able to install word or PowerPoint on it I was devastated to say the least. Not knowing what to do with this (at this point) pretty much useless piece of tech but also not wanting to sell it since it was a present from my mom I started researching and finally stumbled across oclp. THANK GOD

After struggling for like a week installing it properly (btw thanks to everyone who answered my dumb questions in this subreddit) It now finally runs surprisingly smooth on Sonoma. I‘m absolutely stoked to now have a MacBook to take to university and get stuff done with (And also play PS2 games while commuting there :) ) Big thanks to the community!
