Mini-MAC Upgrade?

I have an old Mini-Mac from 2008, running 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard). I have reasons why i occasionally need to use this ancient unit, instead of my much newer Apple desktop machine.


Not surprisingly, I already know it cannot be upgraded to Ventura. My question is are their ANY OS upgrades above Snow Leopard (like Lion or whatever others) that would work?


Thanks.

There was no Mac mini that was released in 2008.

However, the 2007 mini can run 10.7.5 Lion, and the 2009 Mac mini can be upgraded to 10.11.6 El Capitan.


To discover exactly which Mac mini you have, click the Apple icon  at the top of your screen and choose About This Mac.
