[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1604785, member: 56379"] As far as security (as I mentioned)...OS 10.9 is the newest OS version...so it should have the best security. And as I mentioned...some of the biggest changes have been: - disc based OS installs vs. download installers - 10.9 is free - storage devices have a recovery partition when an OS is first installed on them...which is needed since we no longer have discs to boot the computer from. A lot of the other stuff are things that can be explored/discovered as you go. It might also be a smart idea to do some Google searches for OS reviews: - 10.6 vs. 10.7 - 10.7 vs. 10.8 - 10.8 vs. 10.9 If you cover this...then you will know the differences between 10.6 to 10.9.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
