![]() It’s not that I was happy with my Yosemite-based system. So I decided to wait until at least OS X 10.11.3 before upgrading to El Capitan.ĭon’t get me wrong. And it’s only when OS X 10.10.3 came out, several months later, than my major responsiveness issues with the Mac Pro were finally resolved. With Yosemite, I had waited until the official release of OS X 10.10.1 before upgrading from Mountain Lion. There’s just no way that I can continue to work and play with an operating system that is several years old and no longer updated.Īfter the trauma of my experience with Yosemite, you won’t be surprised to hear that I decided to take my own sweet time with the upgrade to El Capitan. That being said, unlike some people, I cannot stay behind the times for very long. From my atrociously noisy Power Mac G4 MDD to my Faraday-cage PowerBook G4 that couldn’t get a wireless signal to the mooing MacBook disaster to my kernel-panicking Power Mac G5 to the seemingly never-ending list of long-standing bugs in Apple’s software and its general untrustworthiness as a purveyor of quality, reliable productivity software (hello, Pages 5), I can’t help but feel that the number of on-going problems with my computing setup outweighs whatever enthusiasm I might still have in me about technology in general and computing with Apple products in particular.Īnd so the reserves of energy and time that I am willing to devote to writing about these things have become somewhat depleted. It’s something that’s been building up for years. I also have been feeling rather discouraged about the whole computing thing. ![]() It’s just that I find it less time-consuming and more immediate to post things on Twitter, in spite of the limitations of the medium. It’s not that I don’t have anything more to say about OS X or other topics. I haven’t written on this blog since last year and my very traumatic experience with upgrading my 2014 Mac Pro to OS X 10.10 (Yosemite).
