[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1570075, member: 56379"] What security flaw are you talking about? Are you 100% sure there's a security flaw? If you don't know the proper OS name for 10.6.8…I'm thinking you're not an OS security expert either. No disrespect intended. OS names are a lot easier topic than OS security.:) Yes you could do that. But be aware that if your computer is currently running OS 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard)…upgrading to "Mavericks" (10.9.2) is a BIG all at once upgrade (three versions newer). It's very possible that if you have some "paid-for" installed apps…that the OS upgrade to 10.9 may make them non-compatible (you need to check on app compatibility). - Nick [/QUOTE]
