Is this model upgradable to osx mountain lion?

Yes, absolutely it does run Mountain Lion, my mini at work (this model) does. When new, it came with the operating system Leopard. It needs to be running Snow Leopard (download from itunes store) before it can be upgraded to Mountain Lion.

Can't speak to your exact model of mac-mini or OS version, but I burned a 50Gb blu-ray data disk from a 2.6 i7 mini running mountain lion without any special installation.

I believe that's Snow Leopard? If so, it is compatible. I started out with 10.6.8 and have upgraded to 10.8.5, with no problems with MacGourmet.

Agreed. I'm wanting to upgrade from Leopard to Snow Leopard and then possibly Lion. Purchasing both Snow Leopard and Lion from the Apple site/Mac App Store is cheaper than buying Snow Leopard here. And Mac Store has free shipping on Snow Leopard at the moment. Together, both purchases are about $60, excluding any taxes. I'm sticking with Apple too. EmmKays

All apple proprietary software that came with mountain lion OS was preloaded on the Mac I recieved

Yes it is. I have found that the message to update the reading isn't current and will display the need to refresh has not worked since Mountain Lion.

Upon purchasing my computer, the specs show "Mac OS X v10.5.6" as my OS. So, I am wondering if there is some information that is screwed up. All I know is my computer came with Snow Leopard on it, and I upgraded it to Mavericks. Let me find the seller of my Mac. I will forward that information to you. They may be able to help you better than I.Upon searching for the seller of my computer, I didn't seem to locate anything other than their name: The Mac Toy Store. I am pretty sure you can Google the name and find their contact information. They were super helpful throughout my purchase. Good luck!!!

I honestly have no idea. My husband ordered this for himself while on deployment (he's still currently deployed). And I do not remember what version of OSX he has.

I don't know, I'm still using Mountain Lion, but I would assume it would work for your Mac regardless of which operating system you use.

Well since xCode was initially released for mountain Lion , I would assume so. However, I'm completely unaware of xCode platform requirements (other than running on osx)

Yes it does. I have OS X Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro, and it works perfectly fine.

I don't have a MAC but the only thing you use a computer for on this model is for updating software, so I don't know why not.

I run the latest OSX Lion 10.8.3 and works perfectly. I started using it on 1.8.0 I think, works perfectly

Yes, I have this same exact model and it runs OSX Mavericks 109.1 perfectly. Earlier models weren't built to run it, but this is a part of the list of Macs that does run it.

It came with software that made it compatible with my MacBook Air running OS X v. 10.8.4 Mountain Lion. The company emailed the software to me, though I think it may now be available on their website if it's not packaged with the device.

You will have to do a firmware upgrade to 2.1, operating system upgrade to 64 bit Mountain Lion. However, really not much improvement at the end of the day. I would look into a SSD hard drive for more performance.

Extremely late reaction, but did you find out of the MC1's compatibility with OS X?
