![]() ![]() ![]() But still it's better than having a computer with compromised security. ![]() You need to read up on it first and accept that the computer will be slow. I did that with an old iMac before just to make sure it was getting security updates and it worked OK. So I think that 2013 model should still be a usable computer for light use.īy the way, if you really want to eke out more life from a Mac, there are ways you can trick it into installing a newer OS version, even if Apple doesn't allow it. I was using it for managing 16mp JPEG files from my K-5 IIs and that was no sweat. Having said that, I was using a 2010 MacBook Air (Core 2 Duo) until this January, and it wasn't really causing me any stress until I had to spend the whole day in Webex and Zoom conferences. The RAM, the older screen and processor are limitations that you can't get around. You can probably get a replacement battery too, but I don't think it's worth it. That's a third of the way to getting the current model Air. A quick search showed that a 1TB internal SSD upgrade is $299. Sure, there are companies that will sell you upgrades to the internal SSD, but they are a bit pricy and the money would be better used toward a new system. My advice would be to give it a go just to see if you like Mac OS, but don't spend any significant money on it. ![]()
