I have an early 2009 24" iMac that is working very well for me. I was curious though about how long Apple will support this hardware with OS updates/new versions? Since this model has been discontinued for nearly 3 years (Oct 2009) I am wondering if Mountain Lion or the next one will be the last OS update?
Being that Apple sold Core 2 Duo machines even in 2012 (white MacBook for education stopped in Feb 2012), I am hopeful they will support it for another 3 years. As Apple likes it I am sure, when my hardware becomes obsolete (no more OS upgrades) that is when I usually trade up (about every 5-7 years).
Thoughts?
