'Official' New Member Thread: Welcome

[drbock]

Hi, from Cincinnati. I've owned Dells with various versions of os way back to 3.11 and DOS 6. I started using a iPhone 4s and liked it so much, I got my first ipad2 with iOS4.3.3. I use the pad 3/4 of the time, leaving my Toughbook in the closet. I just worked out purchase of a brand new iPad pro. Only reason was certain streaming apps no longer work with 4.3.3. Never upgraded since the pad has 54 gb on it and essentially doing a reformat, is too much. I'm 63, love hardware issues on computers and I refurb vintage Sony micro TV from 1960 on. I am semi retired at 63 and just agreed with Verizon after they made some concessions to keep me. The 128gb pad is still boxed along with a Logitech Create keyboard. Here's where I need help. I understand the fit into the keyboard case is difficult. Iwas going to put a thin Zagg liner on the back and a thin glass protector on the front. Will the keyboard still slide into the keyboard case. I really like keyboard being lit. Or would I be better off with Apples own keyboard. It is weird in that it doesn't protect rear side. Please let me know if you have either keyboard

I have observed and lurked for a while and decided to join. I have a iPhone and iPad so I look for information or new products rumored to be coming out. I was debating on a work device and finally chose the MacBook air. There were 3 devices I debated and reviewed. The Microsoft surface, iPad Pro and the Mac Air. I debated and decided to go with the MacBook Air for portability and a work unit. I also wanted to be able to exchange information between devices so I chose to go all apple. I will probably purchase a iMac to replace my dated HP laptop for home use in the near future as well.

Hi everyone. Long time lurker here finally created an account. Does MacRumors have a Marketplace by any chance? I can't seem to find one.

Hello! own several things from Apple. Came from the backdoor in 2009 with os x on PC. Tried it and liked it so much that I had to own a real one. At the beginning a mini then a rMBP and the big one a MP. Now I just bought a MBP.
For iOS, i owned severals iPhone too and iPod at the beginning. First retina iPad too.
But I am not used to MBP so I just signed in (especially all the thing with I/O thunderbolt, mini DisplayPort, DisplayPort).

It does.

However, you need to have been a member for 180 days - around six months - and to have made more than 250 posts before you will be able to gain access to it.

 

[monstruo]

Still a newbie after so many years.

Hi,
I've been a fan of Mac Rumors for a while. I have used a lot of technical advice on this blog. Two of my wired mice have gone bad within at least two months. Can a bug on the internet make your (wired) mouse go bad? Anyway, I'm glad I am here. I've also used Macs for a long time. This is the place I go to see what is up and coming.

Hello. My name's Vlad, I live in Brazil (yes, the land where Apple products have insane prices...) and I've been a MacRumors reader since... I don't know, probably 2011. That's the year I became an Apple user. Let's see what being a MacRumors Forum user brings me. Thank you all.
