Re: Apple Computer
Thanks for some sane observations, Randy. It¡¯s all in how open a person is to learning new things, I think. I got my first Apple Computer in 1985, my first Mac a coupla years later. Today I¡¯m 71,

Re: Apple Computer
Someone on a different forum asked if their original Mac was worth anything, or if they should throw it in the garbage. I did some quick research and found that those original Macs have become

Re: Apple Computer
AI is just another tool. It¡¯s not a separate mind, it¡¯s a tool wielded by humans. Just like using a computer was considered ¡°cheating¡± by some in the very early days of personal computing, AI

Re: Apple Computer
The difference is that the old tend to get scared easily and give up. The young keep on banging at it until they become masters of it. That¡¯s why you can usually ask your twelve year old child to

Re: Apple Computer
Apple is a company, and well above anything else, the reason that a company exists is to make money. A company can usually be expected to do whatever makes them money, with little regard for their

Re: Apple Computer
A little off topic but my early Mac club, the Beta Traders, had a motto. ¡°If you have to read the manual, it¡¯s not Mac enough¡± I¡¯ve had a Mac since February of 1984. Still have it with the

Interesting discussion. I had a similar one with my son and daughter-in-law last week. He's a successful YouTuber (I add successful because YouTuber still sounds so trivial to me) and his wife is a

Re: Apple Computer
International Harvester, the heavy truck division anyway, used Macs for years. Don¡¯t know if they still do as it¡¯s been years since I have needed parts for any ¡°Binders¡±. Bob

Re: Apple Computer
Perhaps I should have made my point more clearly. I am 82 years old but I am not afraid of technological change (I love using my iMac as much as I did my Mac Plus), I am not afraid of using AI, and I

Re: Apple Computer
Resistance to change is almost universal, and not age dependent. The young struggle with new and strange things, too. The elders just have stronger habits and muscle memories. But after all the noise,

Thanks Randy. I am a senior and have just begun embracing the term boomer I hear a lot these days when younger folks refer to something I do that dates me. But I have always thrived on change. So I am
