New MacBook Pro
After six years, I had to move on from my old MacBook Pro. The main issue was that some of the keys weren’t working anymore. Typing had become slow and annoying. I tried to wait it out because I dread starting fresh. Thanks to the cloud, I only spent about 4 hours getting everything back up and running without having to do the automatic migration, which my tech guys warned me not to do.
I got my mails and Adobe Clouds up and running pretty quickly. Transmit was a piece of cake to migrate thanks to its export tool. I got new license for Nova and spent a bit of time to get SASS running again. What I worried the most was setting up MAMP. Fortunately, that was also a breeze. I was also able to run MySQL server 8.0.40 in MAMP for WordPress, which I was not able to do on the old MacBook Pro.
I got a brand new black MacBook Pro this time and it is so damn slick. I am loving it. This laptop should last another 6 or 7 years, but I might cut it down to 3 or 4 years depending on the Law Library budget.
