• Is apple dropping the ball a bit with Catalina? Heard quite a few people who aren’t happy with it

  • I think so.

    I've heard so many horror stories about upgrades to it. So I held back on getting a Mac until they shipped with it and also had fixed the keyboard (lots of horror stories there too).

    I thought the clean install on new hardware would mean I wouldn't encounter any issues. I was wrong.

    This is the first Mac I've ever bought for myself... and I don't think what I've experienced is indicative of Mac reputation, but I've convinced myself this bug is real and the root cause is the OS not the hardware. That's not so bad, they can fix software easily.

  • What's the spec out of interest? and 13/16?

    On the 16 I've noticed reports of people saying there are heating/fan issues if you're powering it from a port on the left hand side of the device. Came about in a few threads on Twitter from an editor asking about using it closed in a stand plugged into a monitor/keyboard. If the power source is in the left hand ports the fans go batshit and temps rocket. If power is plugged into the right it's far quieter/cooler.
