We have an Intel iMac from 2009 with a Core2Duo CPU, 4GB of RAM, and 20" screen. There is no support from recent MacOS versions and the installed MacOS feels very slow.<p>What creative use cases are there instead of throwing it away?<p>Thanks,
Raoul
You <i>can</i> fairly easily install the latest macOS on such older iMacs [1]. It works well and gives them a new life. If you do it, consider increasing the memory to the max (8 GB?), and replace the HD with SSD. Still plenty of power to use for email, web browsing, DJ station (Spotify and/or Sonos), and even to run Xcode.<p>[1] <a href="http://dosdude1.com/mojave/" rel="nofollow">http://dosdude1.com/mojave/</a>
Perhaps you can put it somewhere in your kitchen?
