[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1560285, member: 131855"] I am currently running Mavericks on a 2008 2.8 GHZ Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro, The Core 2 Duo should meets the [URL="http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/"]Mavericks minimum system requirements[/URL]. I do have 8 GB of memory in the machine but have run Lion and Mountain Lion with as little as 4 GB. I think the one change I have made is to permanently set the machine to boot in 64 bit mode. It's an easy change but I would have to look it up. From the Apple menu choose About This Mac>More Info>System Report. If the Machine Identifier reports 5.1 you have the same machine I do and Mavericks will work. If you are still using Power PC software stop at Snow Leopard as Bobtomay suggested. [/QUOTE]
