The big problem with that is compatibility with many old applications. Read this tip:

And if you don't have a new enough iMac, you are limited to either Snow Leopard or Lion.

You can't downgrade your iOS. So sadly, if you don't have a new enough computer, you'll be forced to sell your phone through http://www.gazelle.com/ or http://www.powermax.com/ and get one that still has an older iOS on it.
