Neither run recent versions of macOS particularly well, and they certainly aren’t good for power-hungry tasks. Each of these Macs had 4GB of RAM and much older Intel processors. Both of these machines have run-of-the-mill specs for their time. I was able to get CloudReady running on a 2014 Mac mini and a 2012 13″ MacBook Pro. Here’s how to get CloudReady up and running on an old Mac. This means that Google offers an officially sanctioned way of reviving old computers with Chrome OS. Just last year, Google acquired Neverware, the company behind CloudReady. CloudReady isn’t a new product by any stretch, but I had always been itching to try it out. Is there an old out-of-date Mac that you desperately miss using? Well, you’re in luck because it’s incredibly easy to install a modern version of Chrome OS on old Intel Macs for free.
