Q: Should I upgrade from OS X 10.7.5?
I can find few reasons to upgrade my iMac from OS X 10.7.5.
I do not game, I do not do graphics work, I do not link to my Android phone.
I basically use the machine for internet and music.
I cannot find any significant reasons to upgrade. There have been some minor Apps I wanted which will not
run on anything below 10.8 or 10.9, but these are things I can live without.
Why do I not want to upgrade? I feel I would just be adding features which I will never use, and there may be some software issues with things which I have.
Any suggestions are welcome...

Actually the older versions of OS X are available from Apple but kind of tricky to find.
I never get upgrades when they first come out. Too dangerous in my experience until they work out the bugs.
Thanks
OS X is the ONLY security you need. You are hinting at adding additional security, you cannot. What you can do is potentially damage OS X by adding cleaning, antivirus or other third party applications that allege to increase security. They do not!
