OK guys, let's have some fun here... I have a spare set of optical drive brackets and I am willing to let it go for free (just pay shipping) provided you can identify an Apple branded unit. I will not give you any pointers, but some of you have pretty good eyes and will be able to figure out what it (may) is...
I will post a new picture everyday (I have 9 total) and the first person to email me the correct answer will get the brackets. I will try to make some stats afterwards as well. Some images are pretty generic, so it will be hard to figure it out but if you put everything together, you may figure it out... The first picture is attached... Email me at pmargari@gmail.com Good luck!!! paris Attached thumbnail(s)
