My experience has been just the opposite. I set up my online account access on 20 Jun with no problems, made charges at Costco on the 20 Jun, and made an online payment from my bank on 22 Jun. Everything worked flawlessly.

Re: I haven't bought a Mac in 9 years. - 5 years ago

We also have 2 MacMinis one is a 2011 and the other is 2012. Both have had RAM upgrades as well as SSDs installed and and each has had a second internal hard drive installed. However in the last four years we have purchased

Re: Anyone for a Canon? - 6 years ago

I received mine this past week. I have not had a chance to use/play with it yet. Even though it is a refurb the case is perfect, looks brand new. Some one had been asking about serial numbers, mine starts with 72203.... I'm hoping to find some time later in the week to sit down with the manual and learn how to use it properly.

Re: I did not want to believe it about SuperDuper... - 7 years ago

I have never used SuperDuper, but I am a long time Carbon Copy Cloner user. I like that it's easy to use and am very happy with it. In my opinion it's with the $39.99 it currently sells for.

Re: Hmm - would have thought a RYF on our M500 SSD deals - 7 years ago

Those are really good prices, but I just bought a M500 a few weeks ago from a competitor. I wish I had waited to make the purchase. It's going to go in a 2012 Mac Mini that is a Christmas present to my wife.
