Nov 29, 2015 7:26 AM in response to RWMby Mike Sombrio,I have a late 2009 iMac running El Cap just fine. BUT I have 16 gb of ram, the biggest mistake people, especially people with older Macs, make is trying to run a modern OS without enough ram. To run smoothly you need at least 8Gb of ram, but I believe you should have that running Yosemite too. As far as what version of windows is supported I don't know, I use Parallels and Win 7.

Nov 29, 2015 11:09 AM in response to Loner Tby RWM,Thank you for the information. My research indicated that my iMac will not support Windows 8 or 10. Therefore, my question becomes: If I upgrade to El Capitan will its version of Bootcamp support Windows 7?
