Vendor Support for MacOS
SLAC only allows operating systems which are still receiving security
updates from the vendor. Apple only provides security updates for 2
latest versions of MacOS. See below for the 2 versions which are allowed
on the SLAC network. You should always be running the latest incremental
release though (e.g. 10.4.8, not 10.4.5).
