I asked at Lowes the other night why they don't do Apple pay - they said they tried, then there were duplicate charges in their system and they stopped.

Given that it works in many places, it sounds like their implementation rather than an Apple issue.  

Pretty smooth.  Worst part was waiting for the update servers to respond, after that popped up I hardwired the network to speed up the download.  "Setting Up" screen took ages, and posts online said OK to power cycle, so I did.  

This is a MacBook Pro 9,2 - so it's not the best candidate, but it's going well.  A few 32 bit things are being tossed.  QT7 is relegated to the Utilities folder - can't see tossing it if I need it on another machine.  

Mail database update is taking the longest time.  Music took 2 minutes, Photos is on track for about 30 min with 15,000+ photos.  

AppleTV is odd - need to poke around a bit more - purchased things seem to be in a menu rather than a screen button, but I'll look more closely.  

Some of the 32-bit warnings I was getting in Mojave were false alarms - Google Earth Pro and SmartBoard.  \

I'm impressed, given the hand wringing I saw with the beta.  This was the first beta I didn't do.  

They had the late Bill Campbell, who was a great presence as coach and leader.  The Friday +beer meetings were pretty good too.  

I gave up on Evernote based mostly on the UI/UX changes.  Minimalism is not the zenith of functionality.  I've been through Opus Domini (most intuitive IMHO) and Wunderlist (best cross-platform integration IMHO) I've gone to Google Keep (no native MacOS) for tasks and Notes for everything else. I keep downloading OneNote thinking it will be tweaked to the point of usability, but I'm no longer holding my breath.
