That's all you need to know.  IT's A MAC.  More expensive.  LESS stuff.  Wildly frustrating.  I WANT TO GO BACK TO PAPER AND TYPEWRITERS!!!!  SO WHAT +++DID WE DO+++ BEFORE COMPUTERS?  I've been a MAC person for many years now, and it's getting a little out of hand and out-of-reach.  As a senior, living on poverty level, SERIOUSLY, WHAT DO THEY THINK WE'RE MADE OF.  My money tree out in the back yard never sprouted ... and WHY SHOULD I continue to make the RICH RICHER and ME POORER?  Ya, well, this could well be my LAST MAC .... Getting too old to squander my bucks on the rich any more.  I DO LOVE MY MAC, don't get me wrong, BUT the TIME is coming ... and it's going too fast and I don't want to get there ... but I'll enjoy this MAC like all the others before it while I can.
