[QUOTE="stellman, post: 1632915, member: 53234"] My concern with upgrading a 4 year old computer to a new operating system is whether the new system will routinely demand to consume physical resources that will tax the older system. Sure, Yosemite is now running on my MacBook that I bought in 2009 with a 2.26 GHz processor and 4 GB of memory, and updated the OS whenever it asked, but I also noticed that it takes over a minute to come out of sleep. It takes nearly two minutes to get XP running under Parallels, more than twice the time on my iMac that I bought in 2012. [/QUOTE]
