Presuming you have compatible hardware, there's no real negative to upgrading macOS to the latest version. Fear mostly a lot of my old stand by programs will not work, or so i'm told and woul dhave to upgrade several, which i am aware needs to be done. But fear mostly I can understand that. The best way to combat fear is to work from the basis of knowledge: before I install OS updates on my main system, I build a test system with the updated OS and test all my standard tools, in their latest incarnations. Doing this makes it very clear what to expect when I install the OS for real on my main system. I'd recommend anyone resisting a system upgrade do that first. If too much then proves broken, and you can't afford to ... or simply can't ... upgrade some essential bits, you can stay clear until you sort out the incompatibility or move to other software. No big deal, really ... In the end, if what you have does the job, just keep using it. But if it doesn't do the job then you have to do something to enable forward motion. :-) G -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
