I’m trying to post info on this laptop in order to sell it. Just can’t seem to find a production date of this product anywhere. I’m pretty sure it’s 2011 or 2010 correct ?

Hi:

 

Look at the serial number.

 

The 4th, 5th and 6th characters will always be numbers.

 

The 4th character is the year of manufacture.   It would be a 1 if your notebook was made in 2011.

 

The 5th and 6th characters are the calendar week of production.

 

So for example if the 4th, 5th and 6th characters were 123, your notebook was manufactured in June (23rd week of the calendar year), 2011.
