What hardware do you have? How old is it? So I was a firstime MAC user in 2011 - when I bought my first MacBook. Prior to then, I had never touched a MAC and infat when I got the MacBook, I didnt know how to turn it on or off for the first 6 months. When I took it out of the box, it started up and I used it daily, just closing the lid each day. I am now a huge fan and convert. Prior to the Mac, I was using Linux desktops, and while I am/was a long term Linux advocate, using it as a business desktop was a pain in the rear. Nothing worked (when interacting with others, like documents, spreadsheets, etc), too much fiddling, shutdown/reboot was faster than hibernate and many other things that frustrated me. I still have that Macbook - my son uses it for his school. In 2013 I bought a 27' iMac, and used it daily until a month ago, where it will become the kids house "desktop" for school stuff. I upgraded to a Mac mini M1 and love its performance. I held off for many years, simple because my 27' still works well and I couldnt justify replacing it. Now I found a new purpose for it :) ....лоеп --- SBBSecho 3.14-Linux * Origin: I'm playing with ANSI+videotex - wanna play too? (1337:2/101) .
