Min spec

As a temporary setup I need to transfer my licence to another Mac . What’s the min spec for the Mac ? . Just want to buy a cheap 2nd hand one to use for about a year on my new build house .

Cheers

Probably a Mac mini 2012 with High Sierra and at least 4GB ram.

Re: Min spec

Bought a used i5 Macbook pro at a decent price; should be perfect for the task!

Re: Min spec

hmmm...a MacBook. I hope you have more success than me working around the MacBook-specific system sleep issues that forced me off an otherwise perfectly adequate MacBook Air.

Re: Min spec

I'm having sleep issues with my mac mini. The only thing that seems to work is amphetamine. The problem is that once in a while it crashes and then soon after mac mini sleeps again.

Re: Min spec

I've had no trouble suppressing sleep on the replacement mini (but do use amphetamine). however as the dev of amphetamine calls out, there are circumstances where amphetamine & its equivalents can't stop a MacBook sleeping (while in clamshell mode).
