[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1701365, member: 8287"] Yours was made in 2007 sometime. I know because here is an early 2008 that I also own: Hardware Overview: Model Name: iMac Model Identifier: iMac8,1 Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz Number of Processors: 1 Total Number of Cores: 2 L2 Cache: 6 MB Memory: 4 GB Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz Boot ROM Version: IM81.00C1.B00 A 2008 is an 8.1 where my 2007 is 7.1. The Bus speed is faster on the early 2008 also as you can see from my screen shot. The 2007 runs El Capitan fine, but with 4GB RAM it's a bit lean for doing many things at the same time. Just a note though you can if you go with OWC RAM push it up to 6GB but it's not cheep for that older machine. It would help with a newer OS though! [/QUOTE]
