I have a 2017 i5

Should I do the update? Any issues? Will it slow everything to a crawl?

I used to love to beta test. I’m too old and cynical now.

I’d love a quick review of Catalina on a MacBook 12 from someone younger and braver than me lol.

I am running it on a MacBook 12" without problem.

You need to make sure you don't have any 32 bit apps you want to keep.

Mostly works.. apart from some weirdness, like mail search randomly sometimes working and othertimes returning everything as a match.. and xcode randomly not being able to find include files, and starting to complain about uint32_t et all not being a valid type..
