Upgrade to macOS Big Sur

Before installing this upgrade, make sure that your Mac is ready.

Check compatibility

El Capitan, Sierra, High Sierra, Mojave, Catalina, and now Big Sur, this is really annoying. Personally, I see no advantage in changing OS's because Apple wants to sell more machines. In fact, with every new Apple OS they take something away, like USB faxing, gone forever. OS X 10.8.5 Mountain Lion signifies a different landing on Apple’s chip towards regular OS X updates: Mountain Lion is truly unique in boasting some exceptional features to the world of the desktop operating system. In terms of newly added features, Apple’s ninth major hit would certainly carry the day over previous releases.
