- 21 M1 Pro 14" MBP, 23 M2 Pro Mac Mini (MacOS 14), iPhone 15 Pro Max (iOS 17), iPad 6 (iPadOS 17)
Well I've gone and bought a new iMac - after saying that if I were ever to change my computer it'd be for a MBP and new display!! I've had the last one for nearly seven (I think, or six maybe??) years and it's been superb. Just lately though things have started to go a little awry with more and more spinning beach balls, longer waiting to do simple tasks in Lightroom or Photoshop, etc. The old one won't be fully retired though - my daughter will be getting it for her room
Anyway, I've bought the base 27" 5K model but with a 256GB SSD instead of the Fusion Drive. I've left the RAM at 8GB and will see how I get on with that before deciding whether to ugrade to 16GB or not.
Just got to wait a week or so for Apple to deliver it now. At least with all my data on external SSDs the migration process should be fairly quick and straightforward with only the Apps to copy across.
Yay - new year, new iMac
