[QUOTE="sago48, post: 1633885, member: 209649"] Thanks for the continuing engagement. Rod, Apple offers very clear guidance on minimum specs/age requirements for Mavericks, and on their lack of support for old OSs too. With specs there may be workarounds in some cases - e.g. I changed my old core duo from 1,1 to 2,1 with a core2duo processor and a firmware upgrade, and nearly (only nearly) got it to install Lion - there was a path to this but for me it was too long and detailed and not worth it in the end. There are no doubt similar options for Mavericks Also, going back not really a problem should he find Mavericks too different. As I said I'm being given a copy of Mavericks so I see this as resolved. Thanks again [/QUOTE]
