Buy an older Mac?

[Mike Matthews - Omnis]

Hello Mike,

Aye, I’m still running my 17” 2011 MBP with an SSD.  Not as fast as new ones for doing long jobs, but for dev and user work, it's fine.  The SSD is the best thing.

Catalina or Sierra?  Sierra was the last of HFS operating system from Apple, and I think about the lowest version for Studio v10.  Also less ‘bling' to titilate those people with less imagination.

Mike

Hi
I have the chance to buy a MacBook Pro model from 2012 to 2013 for a third
of current price from a trusted supplier. It has SSD ram and storage,
plenty for my needs.  Running Catalina.

Is it suitable for a few year's location work with Omnis?  I vaguely
remember Mr Matthews bought similar?

Thanks
