no, it's an old Mac running Yosemite, it's apparently too old hardware-wise to be able to upgrade to the newer OS now X/

Ahhh that makes sense. Are you building a hackintosh, buying a new mac, or switching to windows then? :)
Not too sure yet.
For sure I'll try to keep a machine with Linux on it, though a capacity for gaming would be a plus.
I've never considered a hackintosh. Will have to look into that a bit.
well, I better get sure soon.
The Mac's harddrive began saying some of those horrible "I'd like to inform you I'm scraping along the drive right now" noises, and the computer can't start up at all :/
Gets as far as trying to load the operating system, then shuts down once it's noticed it can't properly read the harddisk.
I hope I'll be able to get the ifnromation out fo it at some point, but for now I'm living on my Lenovo X60 emergency computer.
That one would be quite enough if it didn't have a horrible screen defect necessitating you press a certain point on the screen continuously to be able to use it :/
Oh shit, i would back that computer up as soon as possible. That is never a nice sound :/ Hackintoshes are quite cheap to make, but they can be a bit finnicky to get working, i've heard
I'm going I can get it started up at least once more to export data to my external hard drive.
I'm crossing my fingers :)
