I would like to state for the record I have little to no knowledge of MAC PCs or the OS. I apologize in advance if this is the wrong forum for this post.
I resently purchased a used Power PC G4 for my grand daughter. It has a 400 Mhz processor with 512 MB RAM. the hard drive is 10 gig with a ATI video card. The system use to have MAC OS 9.2.2 but I would like to upgrade to a newer version. I looked on APPLE website and I believe my system meets the minimum requiements for hardware for the 10.4 OS.
Question I have is this:
Is there a tool to validate the hardware is appropriate for running the newer OS? I would rather not experiment with purchasing an OS and then find out it does not work.
Thank you in advance for any assistance I may receive.
