In 2006, when it was new, this MacBook Pro was arguably one of the best PCs in America. Now it\u2019s missing its screen (and some keys), its trackpad and Superdrive don\u2019t work, it has a mouse that\u2019s held together with duct tape\u2013and best of all, its video display is a 13-inch standard-definition TV, which it\u2019s connected to using a vintage Curtis Mathes VCR as an intermediary. Oh, and the machine failed altogether while Reynaldo was preparing his entry. Did I mention he\u2019s being using a well-worn copy of Dante\u2019s Inferno as a mousepad?<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18639 alignleft\" style=\"margin:8px;\" title=\"Worst PCs in America--MacBook Pro\" src=\"http:\/\/technologizer.files.wordpress.com\/2009\/10\/worstpc-macbookpro.png?w=478&#038;h=334\" alt=\"Worst PCs in America--MacBook Pro\" width=\"478\" height=\"334\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Another headless wonder<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d never even seen one laptop sans screen, but two showed up for this competition.
