Hey Mac nerds (definitely a good way!),
I have a request for some more information. Here is my situation.
My son, who is 7, has a fascination with creating apps. I want to be able to hone him into those abilities so for christmas, I decided to go on craigslist and purchase him a mac mini. All of my research, obviously not enough, pointed me to be able to create apps on at LEAST a 2007 mac mini.
I found out, after christmas, that 2007 mac mini cant be upgraded past 10.7. Well I found the forum https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1325709/ on upgrading a mac mini to 10.8. Here is my question.
I have a 2007 Mac mini 2,1, 64 bit processor, intel core 2 duo. In theory, my mac has the potential to run a 10.8 OS. Will that guide help me with that or am I at a loss? Then if I upgraded to 10.8, if able, then can I get the other updates such as 10.8.1 and so on? Thanks guys!
(Normally a windows user with iPhones and iPads. I love mac but this is frustrating. I want to upgrade to help get apps out there from my son and I! Any and all info is helpful! Thanks again!
