One of the best news of the last Apple keynote held at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, is totally related to the launch of the new operating system of Apple OS X 10.9 Mavericks and its free for all users who have a Mac bought from the year 2007. But for all those Mac users in the United States who do not want to update to the latest Apple operating system, they still have the possibility of getting a copy of OS X Mountain Lion or OS X Lion by priced at $ 19,99.
The purchase will be made with a few simple steps: after online payment, Apple will send a code to the user's email to be able to download it from the operating system store. In this way, users who want to get a copy of OS X Mountain Lion or even the previous version OS X Lion, they can do it without problem for a price of $ 19,99. Currently they leave the physical format and this will be the only way to get hold of the previous Apple operating systems.
Let's see the models and requirements necessary on the Mac compatible with the last two Apple OS X:
