Hey there Knute. Yeah...looks like you've been a Mac-Forums member for some time. But if it's been a while...welcome back...glad to have ya!

p.s. If you want to...give yourself an avatar...and include some system specs of your lastest & greatest Apple devices.
Used my avatar from the other Mac site.
As to system specs - not sure that would help since I'm looking after all the Macs in my family and issues come up with them at random.
Macs currently in use are:
2017 13" MacBook Air, 2.2 GHz i7, 8GB Ram, 512 GB SSD, running OS 10.11.6
Late 2012 MacMini, 2.5 GHz i5, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB drive, running OS 10.11.6
Late 2011 13" MacBook pro, 2.4 GHz i5, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB drive, running OS 10.11.6 (rescued from major coffee spill)
Late 2011 13" MacBook pro, 2.4 GHz i5, 4 GB RAM, 512 GB drive, running OS 10.7.2

Then I have a bunch of older Macs still that I need to decide what to do with
2 15" MacBook pros early 2008, 3 Mac Minis one of which will probably get connected to my 55-inch screen, an 11" MacBook Air where we found the screen too small, another 13" MacBook pro. Just finally got rid of my 2 old G4's that were running Tiger - these were really great machines, very flexible and expandable, but they were having trouble running mp4 files with their processor.
