    MP 6,1 Can someone help me find info on my MDM issue?

While I am trying to find or contact the company, I have setup a hosts file to block it from reactivation. In the mean, that file also means that every update is manual. I have the device...

    Mac Pro 2013 Owner - Upgrade to MacBook Air M1 16GB worth it?

    Hi all, My work on Mac OS is mainly with Logic Pro X and non-Apple plugins and VSTs. I'm currently running a Mac Pro 2013 (8-core/64GB Ram/2TB NVMe) and I know it's certainly overkill for the type of music I mainly work on (Hard Rock / Alt Metal / Acoustic). I also own a MacBook Pro 13" from...
