[QUOTE="Kevin D., post: 1699082, member: 368881"] Hi there, I'm considering upgrading my Mac ( Macbook Pro mid-2012, 2,5 GHz, Intel Core i5, 4GB 1600 MHz DDR3, 500GB storage capacity with 70GB available) from Lion OS X 10.7.5 to a more recent OS, in hope to optimize speed and have easier access to certain apps (Pages, ...). But people around have many different views about it: some say go to Mountain Lion, others to Yosemite; some say go back to Snow Leopard, it's the best for your configuration; I've read on some forums people having problems with Mavericks on a 2012 MBPro... So my question is: is there a better OS for my computer and if so which one is that? Should I stick with Lion? Upgrade? Downgrade? Any grist for my mill most welcome! ;) Thanks, K [/QUOTE]
