You can't link from within the education store.
Pulls up a "Refurbished MacBook Pro 2.53GHz Intel Core 2 Duo" for me. OP, is that what you were looking at?
DI can't tell if it's a functioning slot or just a dummy slot.
Pulls up the main Education Store page here. Weird.
Uh... then what would be the point of having it?
This is Apple. Everything on it works. What, PC makers put FAKE ports on their machines?!
First of all ,RELAX, I'm just asking a question. Secondly, it makes sense to ask questions if you are not sure of something. Obviously, we all aren't Apple experts like you.
No, no, no! I'm serious; do they actually DO that? Are there laptops (desktops?!) out there that have "ports" that actually don't have the hardware there?
If they do, that's sick.
I've seen laptops with dummy PCMCIA slots.

That's really all that can be said about that.![]()
In my 15 years of IT, I've never seen this before. Must have been one cheap machine.
I have. I had a laptop in the mid 90's and the expansion chassis had a dummy PCMCIA slot. The manufacurer claimed they could never get the slot working so they left it in the body but removed the electronics. The OP is wise to confirm everything although Apple wouldn't pull stuff like that.In my 15 years of IT, I've never seen this before. Must have been one cheap machine.

Just curious if you can respond without being condescending.
Sorry for taking stabs at the PC industry; I'll be sure to defend everything they do in the future.
