Re: Hi up there...... you are awful quiet
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýThat¡¯s interesting about the new pastel-shade 24in iMacs which do *look* very toothsome. So 27in Intel are in demand? ?Well I¡¯m not parting with mine, I love it but it must be 9 years old or getting on that way.

I had to wait a month for my M1 iPad Pro¡ I have always thought them in terms of being a toy and frankly not really changed my mind at the moment. It seems to sit somewhere between the iPhone and the Mac¡. mine has sat for more than a day shut down next to my bed at the present. But I am progressing the drawing packages and I have installed Libby with a library card so I can download magazines and books and found two Mac mags I have read.? My fav tech tells me people are instead going for second hand 27 inch Intel at the present if any come in - he gives them thorough testing before they are let out and often they get a new and bigger SSD. He had two 2019 iMac come in in the past couple of weeks and I forwarded to him customers for two of them for him. Of course at the moment with the Covid situation and working from home the i-appliances sales have gone totally mad ¡ª people buying whatever they can to be able to work from home.? We are allowed out for a date night at the moment :-) You have a way to catch up to our anniversary numbers. ?But well done you two. ?I keep getting told Pete and I are dinosaurs and considering the other 6 half siblings are on seconds and thirds I think we have done rather well.?

Yes, we have been a bit quiet, but I was thinking about you and your iPad Pro yesterday, wondering how things were going. I hope that your relative is OK. ?COVID remains a problem . . . The iPad is a conundrum: it¡¯s really powerful and fast, but there are things that you can¡¯t do with it. ?Do you have the magic keyboard? ?I tend to take both iPad (Air 3rd gen) and MacBook (2017 12¡± Retina) because the latter has the filing system that works with my photo programme (Capture One Pro) and my photo filing. ?It¡¯s not as fast as my iPad or my iMac (2019) but it does the job while on holiday. ?And we¡¯re heading off to Devon, near Totnes, on Thursday for six nights. ?We¡¯ll have electric power but nothing else at the site. When my training contract pays up I¡¯ll get myself the latest iPad Air, and perhaps buy my wife a new iMac (if she¡¯ll let me) to replace the 2011 20¡±. It was our 41st wedding anniversary yesterday and we have a ¡°date night¡± to night at the local pub; it¡¯s owned by Mark Hix, a pretty well-known chef for seafood. ?I¡¯m not keen on seafood but there will be red meat as well. Cheers Chris
