So you are saying that if I cobbled up a machine from parts that would
run the Apple OS they would give it to me?

Yeah, you seem like a hackintosh kinda guy.

You didn't answer the question. Does that free OS have to be tied to a
serial number?

I don't think so but not sure. When I upgraded from 10.8.5 to 10.9.1
(Mavericks) I don't recall the website asking for a serial number. It's
possible that the download automatically seeks and finds it on the
computer, but I don't know.

I was a little nervous doing the upgrade because I was still not all
that familiar with the iMac but it upgraded without a hitch.

I have a copy on a thumbdrive somewhere in my desk of Mavericks.
