[QUOTE="PGB1, post: 1843078, member: 76746"] Thank You Everyone for helping & sharing good advice. I apologize for my delayed return to the thread. The system glitch had me unable to log in until today. It seems there's no good work-around for Apple's 64 bit requirement. Their port change also will require relatively inexpensive adapters or new external enclosures, card readers, etc. for me, since my existing unit is USB-A, Firewire, Ethernet, ESATA equipped. I certainly can't fault Apple for changing stuff because they are primarily a [U]hardware[/U] company and that is how they make money. Also, from what I've read, the 2019 & Catalina have many improvements. If it gets to the point that my computer isn't safe, or simply dies, I'll take the advice some of you gave and buy a machine that's a few years old. It seems like a low cost alternative. For the interim, I'll start seeking 64 bit replacements for my most-used 32 bit applications. Office 2011 should be an easy one to replace with Pages & Numbers or Libre Office. Photoshop Elements might be a challenge and Turbo CAD will require research. It should be kind of a fun project. Thanks Again All for helping & educating! I sure appreciate it. Enjoy This Day!
