[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1640099, member: 131855"] That machine can handle any of the newer OS versions including Yosemite. I like many of the new features in Yosemite (especially in conjunction with IOS 8). Mavericks was stable for me as well. I'd say check the features on both and decide which you prefer. No matter which one you choose I suggest doing the following before installing the upgrade: 1 Check your critical apps to see if any need to be upgraded [url=http://roaringapps.com/apps?index=a]Application compatibility table - RoaringApps[/url]. 2. Make a backup so can revert the system to your current one if need be. A "clone" of the hard drive is best for this but a Time Machine backup can be used assuming the system files are included. The Time Machine backup won't be bootable though. [/QUOTE]
