Question about EveryMac.com Look Up

[3 More Years]

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to know if everyone could confirm something for me. When I go to everyman.com and look up a Macbook by Serial Number under the result I get "Intro Date" and "Disc." which is another date. I understand the "Intro Date" to mean when this model was introduced. However, what "Disc." stand for? Is it "Disk Date"? I suppose what I ultimately want to know is the year of the Macbook so that I buy the part from the correct year. So should I be using "Intro Date" or "Disc." date? What does "Disc." date mean?

Thank you.

I think Disc will be Discontinued

But am more than happy to be proven wrong.

Anyone else have anything else that it could be?

Just checked. If with the link you provided click on "MacBook Pro "Core i7" 2.9 13" Mid-2012" it does into more detail down the page and confirms it Discontinued Date

Hi, Just to add another point to this discussion. I want to know how you would know which exact year the MacBook was manufactured based on EveryMac search results. Say that you did the search like the example I gave, and say the Intro date was 2010, and Disc date was 2012, then how do you know which year that exact mac is from. I may be being a bit picky, as this does not normally cause me problems, but I would like to know, in case. Thanks.

powerbookmedic.com can decode the production information from the serial number. appleserialnumberinfo.com can as well.

Thanks I have used both of those sites before. I don't know why I stopped using Power Book Medic, because it feels a bit better,
