[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1883490, member: 110816"] Dave, the trend seems to be that about 80% of the iOS users jump up to the latest version of iOS on release, while the macOS upgrade is slower mainly because of other constraints. To that end, Apple continues to provide security updates for the past few releases like Catalina and El Cap and Mojave, but it has to draw the line somewhere. While some part of the obsolescence of older Macs is due to hardware limitations that the new versions of macOS wants to leverage, it's more a way of getting people to upgrade to that they can stop supporting older versions of the OS. Just look at how long it took Microsoft to EOL Windows XP. 😃 [/QUOTE]
