Anyone here unable to move over due to software constraints?
    I bought the Macbook Pro last year. I want to replace the now ancient 15”Macbook Pro used as a server for my A/V system, but some of the software for that isn’t yet ready. It’s ok, because I’m playing around with it with other software. So far, I’ve been surprised at what it can handle. 16GB RAM and 1TB start-up. I don’t recommend the 256 storage as not only is that really squeezing it, but 256 drives are usually not much more than half the speed of 512 and up.
    I've gone for 16 GB of RAM and the 1 TB drive. The other change I've made - applause begins now - is the keyboard with numeric keypad - yay!

    When I hired into my current job in 1992, we had a single Mac for our entire software group. Needless to say, we weren't developing Mac software.
    ...and now?

    Chris Espinosa is apparently a current Apple employee, number 8, having commenced at age 14 when the company was still housed in Steve Jobs' parent's garage. Chris - would love to meet you one day!

  • Warren Buffett calls Tim Cook a 'fantastic manager' of Apple

    We're in good company then with Warren Buffett. Of course, Steve Jobs was no fool. Well done Mr. Cook!
