Aug 8, 2012 7:25 PM in response to cpr4cpuby cpr4cpu,I can never figure out if I have a Mid 2007 Macbook Pro and a 2010 Mac Pro, so there's a handy Wikipedia table to cross reference the model identifier to the model date.
I don't know why Apple refers to an era of computer and not the model identifier to help the rest of us out. It would be so much easier for them to say Mountain Lion is only compatible with MacBook Pro 3,1 and newer.
