If it won't do Mountain Lion, then I can pretty much tell you it won't do El
Capitan most likely.

this unit is late 2007 vintage. I do know this: mountain lion absolutely
will not work on this machine (I know, I tried to install it).

Let me put it to you this way.
I have a 13 inch mid 2010 polycarbon macbook with only 2! gigs of ram,
and it's running El Capitan just fine.

Subject: Installing El Capitin on an older Macbook
Hi.
I am currently running Yosemite on a Macbook that I purchased in 2009. A
couple of years ago, I installed two additional GB of RAM, giving me a
total of 4 GB. I am wondering how prudent, or even possible, it would
be to install El Capitan on this Mac.
I haven’t encountered anything from Apple stating that it wouldn’t be
possible, but I would be interested in other people’s thoughts.
Thanks in advance,
Mike
