I am trying to update my computer to Catalina....

I have a mid 2010 iMac. It does not show my iMac on the list. Are there upgrades I can make to the hardware to keep it going? Will this be expensive?

iMac 27″, macOS 10.12

No. There does not have to be another way.

Your computer is 10 years old. it is not compatible with macOS Catalina.

Full Stop.

No there are no upgrades you can do other than buying a new Mac.

Maybe you could find an affordable used iMac from 2012 or later which can support Catalina.

In this day, it is impossible to afford a Mac. So this is forcing me to go back to Windows????
