my father gave my son his old mac mini (mid-2007) to use for school. he had Lion on it when we got it, but it was so bogged down with software, that my son didn't need, that i reformatted the drive. I've been running the software update, but it won't get me up to snow leopard. he said that when he got the computer, it was already on that, and never had to pay for any upgrades. meaning, he has no other disks for upgrading this mini. do i now need to purchase upgrades? and how far can it be upgraded to? i looked in about this mac and it's 2 GHz Core 2 Duo 2 with 2 GB 667 SDRAM. he needs to be able to access google classroom in order to make this a good option.
any help will be appreciated!
