A co-worker of mine last year decided to buy an old Mac from around 2013 
after the seller promised him that he would be able to run the latest 
version of MacOS. He got exactly that, but the computer was unbearably 
slow. Linux is truly the greater option on old Macs, and that's what I 
installed on the 2012 one I just gave away to my wife's faggot friend.
