MUST WATCH for all OLD MAC OWNERS

I just added YEARS to my tired and old MacBook Pro (2012) it's a horse of a machine but...Apple doesn't support it anymore. I wasn't able to download the software I need to do my work.

Even Google Drive was telling me that it was about to stop supporting it.Which meant this (yes heavy) but perfectly fine piece of metal was destined to the dump. And I can't have that.

Geek that I am (and VERY conscious of the environmental/wallet impact this would have) I set out to figure out if I could do something to breath some life into.And I'm happy to report I found it.

There's a way to 'jailbreak' essentially a roundabout way to upgrade it. And I'm now writing this on my brand 'new' Sonoma (soon to be upgraded to Sequoia) computer.

Never underestimate the power of a geek.T

his is for you if you have a Mac 2008+ watch this video, it's not difficult to do. And don't thank me, you can buy me a coffee with the $ I will save you having to buy a new computer
