Tech question regarding used macbook

Posted by PurpNGold7 on 2/6/14 at 4:45 pm

Mother just bought two MacBooks, one 2007 and another 2009 Pro. Both have preinstalled user info and programs from the previous user. I want to wipe both clean and restore them to factory settings. Thing is both have Microsoft office included already and I'd like to keep that on the laptops.

Can I transfer Office onto a flash drive and then install on the newly restored laptops? And what's the best way to factory reset the MacBooks?

Bourbon tonight. Just got back from the game, my gfs car got stuck in the ice and took 5 guys, including me, to get it out. We weren't the only ones either. Was a shite show trying to leave

Yeah my gf and I were driving back from the game and got stuck trying to go up a curb into Nicholson. Had 5 guys including me pushing the car slipping all over just to get it over the hump. We weren't the only ones either. Our whole ride home consisted of seeing people stranded in the ice. It's bad out tonight guys

How is the barleywine. Was able to get 2, debating on cellaring them a bit or popping one open soon

Just landed. Smashed 6 bud heavies on the flight. Would have much rather smash 6 abrasives, but surprisingly enough United doesn't carry it.

Surprised you got a flight out today with 90% of the US in a tundra.

Grow a sack and put on a jacket. Haven't ran my heater all winter. It's a cool 55 in the house currently.

Yeah well I'm essentially college aged (23) so i guess I choose to use my funds on good craft beer and not my electric bills. :cheers:

do you even heat, bro?

Trying to cut the cost of A/C by not using the heater. We blast that bitch all summer long. So I wear 3 layers and a hoodie to bed. Not so bad once you get used to it.
