Hello everyone! I used to enjoy discussing Apple and its products on a now-deactivated forum called DSL Reports.
I loved engaging with fellow enthusiasts in the All Things Mac section, later known as All Things Apple, where I shared my Apple purchases and sought advice. Unfortunately, the site’s owner chose to close it down rather than sell it, which was disappointing given that DSL Reports had been around since 1999.
Now, I’ve joined the Linus Tech Tips forum. While it seems like a good platform for tech discussions—mostly focused on Windows or Linux—I’ve noticed a lack of interest in Apple topics.
Nonetheless, I’m here to share my enthusiasm for Apple products, a passion that began when I learned about Macintosh in the 1980s, although I didn’t make my first purchase until 2006. As a result, I never owned a Mac with a PowerPC CPU, which is a shame because I always admired the design of those early iMacs with their flat screens and lamp bases.
Currently, my Apple lineup includes an iPhone 15 Pro Max, an M2 Pro Mac Mini, and an M1 Pro MacBook Pro. I plan to take advantage of Apple’s trade-in program to get credit for my Mac Mini, which will help fund a new M4 Max Mac Studio.
As for my next MacBook Pro, I’ll hold off until it supports Wi-Fi 7. I’m looking forward to the upcoming releases of macOS and iOS.
However, based on experience, I believe it’s wise to wait for at least a .1 update, as new operating systems can initially have bugs. One of my critiques of the new naming scheme is that Apple should utilize a full four-digit version number when referencing the calendar year.
