Late model MacMini/Macbook/iMac

[Steve-B]

Our daughter in law is restarting her photography business a year on from having our Grand daughter. She has pinged me to help her out as our son is not a computer person and she knows I am.

 

As she's (currently) budget impaired she needs what she knows best and that's a Mac. I want a 2010 or newer one with 2GB/500GB (RAM/HD) or more and 2010 is important so that I can upgrade her to OSX/Mavericks.

 

So POBC, please contact me if you have one, or are debating upgrading -- I'm in Marlow west of London and we can arrange how to pay/collect accordingly!

For iMacs I think it's post 2007 that can run Mavericks.

Hi Grant, unfortunately not necessarily -- there were a few that could in 2007 (SWMBO's early 2007 iMac won't)....and some that couldn't.

 

The only way I'd accept a 2007 for her was if it came with a guarantee (or a print out of Apple's Maverick's page) showing it could run it.

Sorry my wording was poor. Post 2007 i.e. 2008 onwards (which is what I should have said!).

 

My just sold 2008 iMac runs Mavericks just fine

Hi Grant,

 

No worries, I've pointed her to the Apple Education Programme as I've not had any luck on here finding one. Two days earlier and we'd have snapped yours up!

 

Oh bother
