Yosemite

[Sidewinder]

Anyone upgraded to it yet?

Read a good quote on this:

"..........yet more Ubuntu features being embraced by the Apple faithful…"

 

[Sidewinder]

OK, so CCC it is then, closely followed by Yosemite, and then update the boot usb I think...

 

[kerching]

YOSE....mite?

I am still quite happy with MAR...mite

 

[Sidewinder]

All apps updated, TimeMachine running, next is CCC, then download Yosemite, and see what happens.

My iMac and Mac Book Pro retina display have both been updated.

works perfect.

 

[Sidewinder]

Yep MacBook Pro updated, OK, can't see any diference so far?

 

[steptoe]

is it looking more and more like proper Ubuntu on every upgrade nowadays then?  :slap

 

[Sidewinder]

Most of which I don't use!

 

[daddygiraffe]

Updated to it the other day. Wish I hadnt not fond of the new theme and can't find away of changing it back

 

[daddygiraffe]

Oh cheers! I'll take a look at that in more detail when I get a chance.

I'm waiting until the debugging updates have become stable & hardware is compatible.

I've read of many people installing Ubuntu on macs and that you don't need Boot Camp. Same for Windoze on a mac.

I could understand ubuntu running on mac HW , wonder how windoze copes with drivers?  :C

whats Boot Camp btw? an emulator?  :C

Its a shame Office Outlook will still not sync with iCloud.

People why bother when you have mail, notes and calendar already on the mac, well I prefer Outlook and it syncs ok on a windows pc with icloud so why not the other way round, is it because apple wants you to use their 3 programs I wonder.

Other than that as a newbie to the macbook pro, I'm getting used to it.

It's Apples own dual/triple/quad etc boot thing that partitions the HDD to allow other OSs and drivers to be installed natively. Earlier versions supported Windoze XP, Vista etc but latter releases limit support to 7/8 I think. Apple's Parallels which is the "other way" puts the Windoze etc OS in a VM. Boot Camp is good I understand when the package doesn't work well under a VM. Saying that you do read of people as I said installing alternative OSs on macs without using either Boot Camp or Parallels.
