Is yours a 17" mid/late 2007 model? If you're running Lion, you should be able to see this listed under the Apple menu from "About This Mac...", "More Info...".


From what I can tell your model can't run Mountain Lion... it's listed in MacTracker as 'vintage' and no longer able to run the current OS.


I could be wrong, though... post back with more information about your model.

Probably - this is what I 'found' in MacTracker:


User uploaded file

...and that's what that Apple Serial Number website pulled up for that serial number. We'll have to wait for the OP to clarify!

edit: but MacTracker also says that model can use OS X Mountain Lion... so regardless of model, the answer to the OP should be "yes."
