MacOS High Sierra Compatibility

Image
Apple recently had its WWDC (World Wide Developer Conference) last June 5, 2017 and one of the highlights in the conference is the new macOS High Sierra 10.13 . We know that not all Mac hardware will be supported as technology improves software does too. If you're using a Mac computer, especially early ones and aged gracefully, you might want to check out if you can upgrade ( for free ) when the new macOS High Sierra is going to be available this year. If your Mac computer is just about the year model as below, then there's a high chance you'll be fine. MacBook Pro – 2010 or later models MacBook – Late 2009 or later models MacBook Air – 2010 or later models iMac – Late 2009 or later models Mac Mini – 2010 or later models Mac Pro – 2010 or later models You can read more about macOS High Sierra compatibility on this link .

My first Php 78.22 - Buying and Selling Bitcoin using coins.ph

First Shipping Cart Experience - Hint: A GOOD One!

Image
I don't usually order items online even locally due to some hesitation especially for scams much more for items from outside the country. But sometimes the items I am looking for is not available on local stores or even in Malls, so what choice do I have? The first item I ordered online was an SSD for my old Toshiba laptop ( which I was using for about 2-years while working online ) since it was a good deal from macsales.com as it was a sale.

Yes they issue a tracking number but only effective before it leaves the US, after that no more updates when it is hand over to Philippines' Postal Service. It's a waiting game and trust that your item will arrive at the correct Post Office. Yes, the item I ordered arrived and there's a small fee, about P50 before I can get the item. I installed it and I was happy with the item! I had heard some 3rd p...
