'Official' New Member Thread: Welcome

[Myko]

Hola

Dear Folks,

It is with great pleasure that I salute each and everyone of you members of this great community. I have, for quite some time, "lurked" around the Forum and finally decided to join in and voice my opinion on various topics. I hope to slowly work my way up the ranks and leave my newbie status behind as I share with all of you my "two cents".

Please feel free to ask or point out anything that can help me and every other new member become more productive members of this community.

Thank you and look forward to meeting many if not all of you in future chats.

Hello! I've been reading MacRumors here and there for awhile but never knew there was a forum until I recently found it while looking for iPhone 6+ preorder info.

My dad brought home an original Mac when I was a kid and I had a 6 year old SE that I used in college until the X eyed frowny face appeared. I have many fond memories of playing Loadrunner on these.

Currently, I have a '13 MBA and various mobile devices and this forum has been a huge vault of information.

Hello Everyone on MacRumors Forum.

I recently signed up to your forum; and I was so pleased to find such a community forum for the discussion of Apple Products. I have a newly acquired (last Saturday) Apple Macbook Pro Retina 13in, now learning how to use it! Although I must admit, so far I'm pleasantly impressed with it. I also have an older Apple iPad 2, and an Apple iPhone 4s. The only problem is; I'm not very savvy when it comes to anything technical; in fact I'm probably a bit of a numpty when it comes to understanding the techniques of computing.

I hope to become an active member of your community; albeit asking more than contributing, although I like a bit of a discussion on most subjects.

I like swimming , Cycling, Fly Fishing (river & stream) some photography (new Olympus OMD10 Camera) Learning how to use it! Love Ballroom Dancing and of-course spending time on my computer . I look forward to speaking to many of you in the near future.
Regards
Mostyn

Observation!

Sorry to post a second time; but wouldn't it be a more welcoming thread if the first post was last and the last post was first? Would seem logical to most people.

Hi, my name is Howard. Just wanted to be more up on the Apple ecosphere and figured these forums were a great place to learn from those who use Apple products most.

Hello,

I joined while I've been waiting for my iPhone 6 Plus to be delivered. My husband passed away last January, but he worked in the industry and taught me to use a Mac, I've never used anything else.

It's been a weird month because I traded in my iPhone 5 for the 6, had that for a week, and realized I really needed the bigger screen. I took the 6 back and ordered a 6 Plus, and have been using an old android phone a family member had extra, so only from October 4-27 I will have used it, but it does seem like a long time. I've actually felt quite depressed and wondered if that could be contributing, thankfully FedEx will be here today, and I actually felt like getting out of bed.

This is a great place with a wealth of information, I'm glad I found it.

Hello everyone,

I'm a 25-year-old French student. I study Translation and technical Communication and I decided to be part of your community after lurking for a very long time.
Regarding my story with Apple, I own a mid-2012 MacBook Air 13" and I'm very satisfied with it.

Have a good day!

[martin9000]

Hello to everyone,

Like many people I am a long time lurker of this site because it keeps me up to date and informed.

I recently put my first post on here and it got flamed by a lot of long time users, I don't think I am alone in that respect.

Anyway just saying hello and keep up the good work Macrumors.

 

[martin9000]

Welcome to MacRumors.

There are actually two types of users here. Elitists and those who desire to use what works. Don't let the former drive your bus, and you and I, I am certain, belong to the latter.

Thank you kellyjdrummer.

I don't know

Hi, everyone! Long time lurker, but decided to register finally. I have a work MBP (15" mid-2012 non-retina) and a personal MBP (15" late-2011...crosses fingers for no gpu failure). The latter has 16 GB RAM, and currently has the 750 GB HD, but looking to swap it for a 512 GB SSD.

Anyways, hope to learn alot here and help where I can!

 

[Danley]

I guess I'll post here.

I seem to be sticking around and lurking a lot, largely because I haven't had much in the way of Mac enculturation (even after how intuitive it all is, you know Not even a joke.)

Plus I just need to be in a forum that I don't feel elitist in.

Hello and Hello everyone,

Kenai Andrews here. I'm a long-time lurker over the years and I'm glad I've finally joined the MacRumors party.

 

[Smiler1968]

Hi everyone. I have been using PCs for many years but have just treated myself to a Mac. It's a steep learning curve and I've no doubt I will be picking your brains quite a bit.

Regards. Jerry.

Hey people, I've been getting some useful stuff from these forums for some time now, so time to register I've been tinkering with Macs for quite a while now. Latest project is a dead mac mini 2006. It's being revived slowly

Hi, I'm New Here!

Hi,

I am new here. As I join this forum, you might think that I am a hardcore gamer. Well, I was not a game addict even 6 months ago, but I am an almost full-time gamer now.

How this happened?

Well, my son is 3 yrs old now. He plays games on iPhone like an expert - he knows how to do what, even when he could not identify alphabets he could select Angry Birds from the gallery and played it! Then he played Subway Surfers and now he is up to Demons' Doom. Not sure what's next!

His enormous energy and curiosity towards games turned a non-gamer like me gamer. Even I am thinking of developing few games myself Smile

Look forward to have a nice time with you all here!
