It is one of four desktop computers in the current Macintosh lineup, serving as an alternative to the all-in-one iMac, and sitting below the performance range iMac Pro and Mac Pro.

If you don't have your Mac or it doesn't start up, use one of these solutions instead:
- Find the serial number printed on the underside of your Mac, near the regulatory markings. It's also on the original packaging, next to a barcode label. You can then enter that serial number on the Check Coverage page to find your model.
- The original packaging might also show an Apple part number, such as MGEM2xx/A ('xx' is a variable that differs by country or region). You can match the Apple part number to one in the list below to find your model.
Some have asked about older versions of the Mac OS. You can find System 5 and 6 on Mini vMac Applications. The instructions will be slightly different but pretty intuitive. Now we move over to your Raspberry Pi. On your desktop you should have a Mini vMac directory.
