[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1607765, member: 42497"] Yes it will run Snow Leopard and that is the final operating system alas as it is a 2006 model. Contact Apple Online. Suggest you make a backup of Leopard to an external drive using SuperDuper or CarbonCopyCloner, pop in the Snow Leopard DVD, reboot and holdd own 'C' after the chime, into Utilities > Disk Utility > Erase and format Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and into Partition > Options and ensure GUID is selected. Install Snow Leopard, update to OS X.6.8and then use Migration Assistant in Utilities to drag things from the clone. [/QUOTE]
