About updates and different iMacs

Question

I have a question, one that already has this Suite I could say to that version lets you update? mac and model do you have?
Why? well I came across something that has not been seen before with other versions of CS and that is the topic updates by Adobe and could be called something like discrimination within your machine model.
The experiment consists of
1 iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2009) with 10.8
1 iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) with 10.8
1 Creative Suite Master Collection Trial 6 down from the adobe website, and only settled Illustrator, Indesign and Photoshop.
on the basis that it was installed CS all kept their native versions without update. Illustrator 16.0, Indesign 8.0 and Photoshop 13.0
the result was that ..
on the iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2009) to update to Illustrator 16.0, Indesign 8.0.1 and Photoshop 13.0.1
in the iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) to update to Illustrator 16.0.3, Indesign 8.0.1 and Photoshop 13.0.4
if anyone knows why I would be grateful.
tengo una duda, alguno que ya tenga instalada esta Suite me podría decir hasta que versión le deja actualizar? y que modelo de mac tiene?
por que? bien me tope con algo que hasta ahora no había visto anteriormente con otras versiones de CS y que trata del tema updates por parte de Adobe y que podría llamarse algo asi como una discriminación según tu modelo de maquina.
el experimento consta de
1 iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2009) con 10.8
1 iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) con 10.8
1 Creative Suite 6 Master Collection Trial bajado desde la web adobe, y sólo se instalaron Illustrator, Indesign y Photoshop.
partiendo de la base que se instalo la misma CS todas quedaron con sus versiones nativas sin update. Illustrator 16.0, Indesign 8.0 y Photoshop 13.0
el resultado fué que..
en la iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2009) permite actualizar hasta Illustrator 16.0, Indesign 8.0.1 y Photoshop 13.0.1
en la iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) permite actualizar hasta Illustrator 16.0.3, Indesign 8.0.1 y Photoshop 13.0.4
si alguien sabe el porque le estaría muy agradecido.

Answer 1

You have to look for a Mac Mini that has an Intel architecture. The older ones have a PowerPC (PPC) architecture.
Mac OS 10.4 is the older OS. If you got one loaded with 10.4 (or Tiger) you would have to pay for the full retail version of 10.5 (Leopard), which then can be freely updated to 10.5.4.
