This update of EveryMac.com features two new By Capability listings, deep integration of EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Sort feature with all By Capability listings, and a Popular Q&As page that reveals some of the most frequently read Q&As of the year. EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Lookup has been updated, as well.

As requested by readers, the By Capability & Identifier section now provides new "Minimum Mac OS" and "Bluetooth" listings. If you are not familiar with the now nineteen By Capability & Identifier listings, these provide a convenient one page "run down" of a particular capability or identifier for G3 and later Macs.

EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Sort -- which makes it easy to dynamically match G3 and later Macs that meet multiple specific technical or configuration criteria of your choice -- has been integrated directly with the By Capability Mac specs listings so that models that match a particular capability can be retrieved with one click.

For example, click "Serial ATA (3 Gb/s)" from the Hard Drive Interface capability listing and it will load the Ultimate Mac Sort feature with all Macs matching this specific drive interface and speed. You then can dynamically select additional criteria, if desired, to further refine your selection.

EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Lookup feature includes new identifiers submitted by helpful readers. As always, when you buy a new Mac, iPod, iPhone or iPad, thank you for sending in its serial number. The non-personal information will be added to EveryMac.com to help with model identification and differentiation.

Additionally, EveryMac.com is pleased to note that the site now has more than 1000 members on social media. If you use social media, and you haven't already done so, please join the EveryMac.com community today. Thanks, again!
