[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1616664, member: 234411"] Hi [B]Frank[/B] - I was looking @ your specs on the [URL="http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/specs/imac-core-2-duo-3.06-21-inch-aluminum-late-2009-specs.html"]Everymac Website[/URL] (at least a machine that seems to match closely) - stated that the introduction year was 2009 (making your iMac a little younger than stated in your earlier post) - take a look and see if my assumption is close? At any rate, check the Yosemite requirements [URL="http://macs.about.com/od/OS-X-Yosemite/fl/OS-X-Yosemite-Minimum-Requirements.htm"]HERE[/URL] - if the above is close to your computer & w/ 4 GB RAM (not sure how much HD space is left?), you likely would be able to install a newer OS X - hopefully, our 'hardware gurus' will chime in w/ some more experienced comments. Dave :) P.S. just returned from the Raleigh area this morning (live in Winston Salem) - we spent a few nights @ the Umstead Hotel and saw the traveling exhibit 'Small Treasures' @ the NCMA - enjoyed & love that hotel!
