>I still don't know what people with Macs older than 2012 manage to do >with them. Would someone like to explain?
I'm still using an Early 2009 24" iMac. It's going great (although upgraded with 8 GB Ram and 1 TB HD). I have installed OSX 10.9 Mavericks, and most software has a version for it (you might have to look for it in some archives, though). The only thing I'm not using it for anymore, it's gaming (I bought a PC for that). Everything else, work included, I'm doing on this Mac - even if it's now 12 years old :-) Adobe Creative Suite CS6, MS Office 2011, Firefox, Thunderbid, VLC, Calibre, etc., they all work flawlessly - if a bit slowly sometimes. Sure, if you want to run the latest software you need something newer... but most of the time, if I look around I can find a suitable software that still runs in OSX 10.9. And if it doesn't... usually I don't really need it. -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
