So I see a lot of people bashing the Air for the screen resolution, being an outdated design and a few other reasons. I myself have never been an Apple fan. I don't care for the iPhone, never was interested in the iPod or the iPad, and I haven't used a "Macintosh" since they were still called Macintosh in the late 90's. Prior to that, I remember using the Apple 2e in grade school. So yeah, been a while.
So I consider myself new to Mac as I haven't used them in so long It's not even the same thing. I have to say, as a new MAcBook Air 2017 user in 2018 I'm more than pleased. I even got my Pixel 2 to work fairly well with it when it comes to transferring files and such. I looked and looked for something that ran Windows but they were all missing something. I'm really happy with my choice.It's been a month and I'm using many of my old games via Wine. I put Windows on it at 1st and then realized I really didn't need it. I think I'm sold. 1 thing that worried me was being able to read\write to my existing NTFS external hard drives. But I bought a new external HHD that came with software to allow it and it works on my old drives as well! Happy to call myself a Mac user after using Windows before version 3.11. (I'm talking MS-DOS era here).
So I'm welcoming myself to the club, and would appreciate any tricks or tips that anyones sees as a must while I learn something new, MacOS.
