Ok, this might sound stupid, but besides the aesthetics and gimmicks, what am I missing out on if I stick to Sierra on my MBP. The only reason I haven't updated so far is that I am afraid of my machine getting slower. Appreciate some feedback and/or advice...
Tnx!
EDIT: Captain Stupid at the helm, here. I have been using a Unibeast/Hackintosh macOS High Sierra USB installer. A little hazy on why that would brick legit Macs but it seems to brick legit Macs...
I've a MacBook Pro 15" 2010 running the latest version of High Sierra and I'm looking to buy an external monitor, as well as the right cable to connect it to. Its only monitor port is a miniDisplayPort though.

G'day,
The original Superdrive in my MacPro5,1 was getting pretty clunky sounding so I purchased a Pioneer BluRay Superdrive BDR-209DBK to replace it.
Initially I just stuck it in the lower optical bay, expecting everything to be rosy, but the Mac wouldn't recognise it. (Was running Mavericks...
Well, for no apparent reason, when I start my iMac and fill in as always my password in the login screen, a new login screen appears. Only this time my user account and password are not accepted. Same happens in Safe Mode, while Apple Diagnostics finds no hardware issue.

I never gave up on iTunes 10.7 and got it to work on Yosemite, El Capitan, Sierra and High Sierra without losing Mac App Store’s (MAS) functionality. Might also work on Mojave (but I haven’t tested it yet). Here are the steps I follow to revert iTunes 12 to 10.7...
Hey Folks—
I know there are a few other 10Gigabit Ethernet threads here, but I have some specific needs and thought maybe it would be better to start a fresh thread for them. Please forgive me if you disagree! :)
I would love to be able to deploy some of the new AQC-107 cards and have them...
When I first restart my machine, JPEG previews work fine. After some time (or perhaps it's conflicting with another app? I don't know), it'll stop working and I just get the spinning hatch marks where a thumbnail would normally appear. I "solve" the problem by doing a Restart (which also...

Hello,I don't want to bother the sellers and to return my cards, So I would to know if the Titan or Titan X works natively without the web drivers on Sierra or High Sierra like my 780 GTX does.

As of recent I have acquired a Mac Pro 2, 1. It can currently run all the way up to OS X 10.11 El Capitan, which is still a good OS, but isn't supported by Apple. Is there any possible way to get a Firmware Upgrade from 2, 1 to the 3, 1? There is fundamentally no difference between the two, as...
Hello!

Hey all – I'm in a bit of a kerfuffle at the moment and was hoping someone might be able to shed some light on this situation? I've searched through various forums but haven't had any luck. Many thanks in advance.
