Hi. I know this thread ended a few days ago, but I just wanted to add that 2017 MacBook Air models can't be upgraded to Ventura natively. I say natively because it can still be done. There are just a lot of steps involved and Apple frowns upon it. I won't say how you do it on here but if you're adventurous and want to upgrade your old Mac, write to me off list.
