[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1588572, member: 56379"] Being able to run an older OS version like Snow Leopard (10.6.8) on both computers is no indicator as to the future OS upgrade path (or limitations) for each model. 10.6 = Snow Leopard 10.7 = Lion 10.8 = Mountain Lion 10.9 = Mavericks Each computer model eventually has an OS cut-off. The Mac-Mini is older (2007) than the MacBook Pro (2008). So logically...the older 2007 Mac-Mini has reached it's max. OS version befor the "newer" MacBook Pro (2008). As I mentioned...the Mac-Mini's max. OS is 10.7.5. If the Mac-Mini cannot run OS 10.8 (Mountian Lion)...it certainly cannot run OS 10.9 (Mavericks). - Nick [/QUOTE]
