Subject: FS: iMac 27-inch 2011 (iMac 12,2) 3.4 GHz quad-core I7 Sandy Bridge, 16 GB RAM 256GB SSD + 2TB HDD for £930 or Best Offer
Hi all, but especially to those in the UK looking for a bargain Mac. I hope nobody will mind this listing on here, but I’d really like to find a new home for this beauty ASAP.
I’m consolidating all my Apple hardware and selling off the excess. Accordingly, I am selling an iMac 27-inch mid-2011 in very good condition. It’s a top-spec model, at the time meaning a 3.4 GHz quad-core Sandy Bridge I7 with 16 GB of RAM, a 256 GB SSD and 2 TB HDD. The model number is iMac 12,2. I will take the best offer at or above £930 including postage.
A remote will be included, but not a keyboard or trackpad/mouse, unless we negotiate otherwise (in which case I will charge you extra for the new purchases, which you could otherwise make yourself). In addition to the computer, of course, you will also get the form-fitting power lead.
This machine is notable for being the very last iMac that includes an optical drive and infrared sensor. It also has the virtue of running any OS X release from Snow Leopard upwards including Yosemite and El Capitan when it is released. Besides that, it is among the machines that have the two dedicated audio sockets for input and digital output, 4 USB 2, gigabit Ethernet, single-band 802.11A/B/G/N, 2 Thunderbolt 1 or mini DisplayPort, SD-XC, and FireWire 800.
The primary disadvantages are the lack of Bluetooth 4.0 (which means you can’t use “handoff” of apps) and included USB 2.0. This latter problem can in fact be solved using Thunderbolt to USB 3 adaptors or multi-interface products; the machine has two Thunderbolt 1 ports which you can either convert into USB 3 or connect to a dock or drive that also supports Thunderbolt.
Please let me know by email if you are interested, and I’ll be happy to follow up if you have any questions.
Cheers,
Sabahattin
