We have an old G4 desktop running 10.6.8, we now need to upgrade but we can't run Sierra on the old Mac and don't really like El Capitan very much anyway. Is it possible to still get system upgrades from the past (10.8 or close)? AppStore only offers Sierra now.

Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.

Also check to make sure there is a compatible driver for your printer.
Do a backup before installing, preferable 2 backups on 2 different drives.
Can we still get an upgrade from 10.6.8 to 10.8 anywhere?
