I don't know enough about Macs to know what type it is. But it's old and
thick and has an Intel Core2Duo CPU. It only has 2GB ram so I put a
lightweight spin on it, LXDE I think. Works fine but the lack of a right
mouse button is annoying and there were a few other quirks but perfectly
usable. The ram could be upgraded to 4GB, which I would do if I was going
to use it on any regular basis.

Thanks,
Richard
