  • Despite what you may have heard, don't write off the iMac just yet

    Looks like I will be using my 27 inch Intel iMac for quite a while

    The iMac was the product that introduced me to Apple. Since that initial purchase, I have purchased several iPhones, MacBook Pros, iPads, iPods, Watches and Routers. I came to Apple because I really liked their all in one designs. I was not interested in buying a box with cables. I am still not interested in buying a box with cables.

    The current iMac doesn't have a large enough screen, enough ports or enough memory. The Mac Studio is like buying a Dell box with cables - No Thanks!

    I know Apple wants us to switch to Apple Silicon and I would like to. However, I came to Apple because of their great all in one designs. I guess I might just leave Apple because they have left me.

    Sorry, but Norton was the largest installer of malware, outside of Microsoft Word, to ever hit the Mac platform. They might be better now but I doubt it. I don't see them fixing their software anytime soon since they install their software deep into the bowels of macOS. There are other anti-virus and malware finding software that doesn't take over your Mac.

    At work, we have had strange behavior ever since Norton versions 8.4 and 8.5 for Mac were released.  Before that you hardly knew that Norton was on your machine.  Sent in log files to Apple, after analyzing they decided the issues were being caused by a Symantec Kext extension corrupting memory in the kernel.  I guess this is why Apple wants to get away from kernel extensions.
