OK, I am not planning on upgrading my 2008 iMac, it is slow enough as it is. As soon as I get some other things working, I will reinstall Snow Leopard on a separate partition then, if I don't replace it, I plan to upgrade memory and/or logicboard.
I like this quote from the article though: "You may notice the compatibility list for MacOS Sierra 10.12 is a little curious because some of the Macs that are incompatible have better hardware than some of the hardware that is included in the compatible list. It’s unclear why this is, but this does suggest that support for MacOS Sierra is not just a matter of hardware specs alone, as the minimum system requirements for macOS Sierra are not clearly defined by minimum CPU type or speed, RAM, GPU, or disk capacity. That makes macOS Sierra a little unusual compared to some of the other Mac OS X releases from years past, but as time goes on we may get a clearer picture as to why this is."
