No, with no tweaks it stops at 10.7.5. With small tweaks, you're still current. My Mac Pro 1,1 is running 10.8.5 now, I intend to install 10.9 later tonight hopefully. There are two methods of tweaking an unsupported Mac: 1) Using MLPostFactor to install support software & hybrid kernel See:<http://www.osxhackers.com/index.html> 2) Using Chameleon bootloader to fake boot 64-bit EFI and run clean software & kernel. See:<http://www.jabbawok.net/?p=47> You'd likely want a better graphics card for either method. It would also be good to upgrade the firmware to Mac Pro 2,1 and install quad-core CPUs so that your Mac Pro 1,1 is effectively an 8-core Mac Pro 2,1. The MLPostFactor method is the old way for older iMacs & MacBooks that have no hardware upgrades available. -- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
