No. It's too old.


Treat yourself to a new one! ;-)


What advantages would it offer vs the hardware he already has?

A 2017 iMac. My goodness how time flies. Also have older ones in the
house -- going back to 2007 or so.

I suspect he already knows newer hardware tends to run faster and run
newer OSs and software. It depends on his needs how this will
specifically impact him.

The current iMac is a 'classic' design which looks just great on any
desktop, even when it's not switched on!

You may read all about it's prowess here if you wish:-

Like many great things in the world, it came from the mind of an
Englishman! :-)

When you ask a question in an open forum others might respond... I
am surprised you show a failure to understand even that.


I'm well aware of that, thanks.

It is that failure, though, that led you to the idea that I might

think David could not answer your question -- something I had never
considered.


Nope. It's more along the lines of you stating that you speak for
yourself. My question, even in this open forum was directed at David.
There was no need for you to answer it.

Are you able to understand that?


I have no trouble understanding considerably more than you ever will.
It's why I'm able to work for a living, and you take advantage of the
government as you work on the side.
