Research direction

Start with the linked 2015 MacBook listing and the Frontier website to determine the relevant hardware and software compatibility constraints. Done would mean documenting whether that Mac can run Frontier, but the issue names no repository files, tests, or contribution scope.

Description

I'm thinking about getting a refurbished (used) Mac laptop.

I seem to remember there was a point at which Mac laptops started sucking.

Is it safe to buy a 2015 Powerbook?

I need to be able to run Frontier on it, that's why I can't buy a new one.
