How exactly do I find out whether or not I can install os x mavericks, specifically when my macbook pro was purchased/built. I'm not sure if it early 2007 or late.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
Open the Mac App Store and try downloading it. This won't be allowed on an incompatible configuration.

Thanks for the reply. So, if it isn't allowed there's nothing I can do about it?
If your computer's hardware is actually incompatible, no, there isn't. If there's not enough RAM or disk space, that can be corrected.

i guess that's what i'm asking then how can i find out if it early 2007 or late? To my knowledge, i have enough RAM and disk space.
Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, click the version twice, append the last three characters of its serial number to http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/?search_keywords= , and load the page.

That's a late 2006 MacBook Pro. As stated on the model's page, it can't be upgraded past 10.7.5.
