Got an older MacBook or iMac that “can’t be updated” to a supported operating system (many of you have !) ?

Good news as that doesn’t always mean the end of the road…..

Just like installing Windows 11 on hardware that’s well past its prime, it can definitely be done, but there are risks and quirks you need to understand before diving in.

And in true Blue Peter fashion “here’s one I prepared earlier” !!.

This project started with a 21.5” Late‑2013 iMac, (13 year old device) officially capped at macOS Catalina and crawling along on a mechanical hard drive.

Step one was upgrading it to an SSD (yes, that means removing the screen as you’ll see from the photos below - something we’ve done dozens of times before).

Once that was in place, we used OpenCore Legacy Patcher to install macOS Monterey on the new drive plenty of great videos on YouTube if you’re curious and fancy having a go !.

Next up: removing the logic board to upgrade the RAM to 16GB now that the machine is fully operational again.

This iMac will be supporting a business application, so investing the time to modernise it made complete sense, and besides it turned into a great case study for LinkedIn.

If you’ve got hardware that’s heading for “e‑waste” status but still has potential, I’m always happy to help give it a second life.

This absolute beast of a computer which we’ve finished assembling this afternoon will be entering the world of VR working with a local business who use VR to model interior space for clients - for example a Hotel Lobby allowing them to design the space - use 3D models for the furniture from the furniture suppliers etc so that the end client can visualise “the same” design as the designer.

All too often we see “the same” things differently - this will help eliminate that and allows multiple iterations to arrive at a final solution in a fraction of the time v traditional methods !

It’s using the latest 2TB of Gen 5 NVMe Storage which runs at a blazing speed of up to 14,500MB/s - with 64GB of DDR5 Memory at 5600MT/s along with an 8 Core AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU and an RTX5070 12GB OC GPU with a massive Noctua cooler inside a Lian Li O11 Air case.

If you need a custom built PC - whatever the application then why not let My Digital Media Take care of IT for you !!

It was a fantastic opportunity today in the sunshine to support and showcase My Family Heritage Vault at Barchester - Bayleaf Care Home in Huntingdon alongside Scott Dwyer

We were also delighted to present the concept to The Mayor of Huntingdon, Cllr Patrick Kadewere, who immediately recognised the potential of the project and how it can help families preserve and celebrate their legacy.

From digitising old photos, slides, video and cine film, to tracing family heritage, and even arranging bespoke family photo sessions with Chris Hornby – Brand Photographer, we’re building a service that protects memories for generations to come.

It was also the first time our new Prestige Box produced by Ccs Craft Studio from Whittlesey was on display too !

Exciting times ahead as we continue to grow this meaningful project.

Taking Control of the Problem… and Designing the Solution:

After years of buying “universal” brackets that were expensive, awkward, or just badly thought out (one even relied on a tiny elastic band that snapped on day one…), we decided enough was enough….

So we took destiny into our own hands.

With our new Creality K2 3D printer, we’re now designing and producing the bespoke hardware we actually want — and our first commercial product is already rolling out.

Introducing Our Custom Mounts for Dell Optiplex Micro PCs:

These compact PCs are incredibly popular with our customers, I’ve created numerous posts in recent months showing how flexible they are - but keeping them tidy and out of the way has always been a challenge.

So we built a solution that’s:

• Simple, strong, and purpose‑built
• Designed around the VESA mounting standard
• Flexible enough to fit almost anywhere

You can mount the PC and its 65W power supply:

• Under a desk
• Behind a monitor
• On a wall
• Beneath a shelf
• In showrooms or digital signage setups
• Or anywhere else you need a clean, secure installation

Thoughtful Design, Real‑World Practicality:

• The enclosure accepts the PC in either direction
• The power supply sits neatly in the same unit
• The power LED remains visible
• A built‑in tab allows excess cable to be secured with a Velcro strap
• Everything is held firmly in place — no flimsy elastic bands in sight

If you need custom brackets, mounts, or one‑off components, we can now design and produce them in‑house. This is just the beginning of what we can create with the K2.

Happy to help businesses tidy their workspace, streamline installs - bringing in this case bespoke ideas to life for the benefit of our business and customers.
