If they are Intel based Macs and all the software you use still supports upgrades for OSX10.5.8, then I wouldn't do anything other than possibly increase the RAM (4Gb minimum). If you're running into problems with software, then consider updating to a newer OSX. A new computer would be the last resort. You should be able to get another 2 years of good use out of what you have.
Upgrading Mac ?'s
I have 2 mac computers that are about 3-4 yrs old. They are running 10.5 OS. One is a imac and the other is a mini. I am using the mini headless for music exclusively. Was wondering if i should upgrade it or save for a new one. The imac is my main computer.
Both are only 2gb ram memory. Was wondering if i should purchase extra ram from site like critical.com? It is like $50 for 8gb i believe. I also need to upgrade from leopard to snow leopard then on to lion? Not much of a computer guy,sorry. Any advice is appreciated.
