New Computer Time Vortex, Day 4
I’m experiencing new computer adjustment woes, and not being able to get much else done. This too shall pass.

Being the very tech savvy person I am, having gotten my 1st PC early ’90s, I bravely bought my first MacBook Pro last April.
My main software runs in Windows so I had a double learning curve using the new Mac with Parallels.
I love my Mac & don’t see how I ever lived with out one. Still the learning curve was definitely there. Here’s a source that’s really helped me learn how to operate the new OS. https://www.youtube.com/user/TechTalkAmerica/videos?view=0&sort=dd&shelf_id=1
Lots of video tutorials.
Yes, all things, both good & bad pass…So enjoy your trip around the curve.
My new printer is now set up, and I’m finally coming around the bend. Thanks, Rebecca.
I am so not tech savvy. I just replaced my desktop because it had Windows XP. Big learning curve to go to Windows 8. Then my computer had an hardware issue and I had to ship it back to Gateway. It was gone longer than I had it. And when it came back I had to set it up all over again. So annoying, they are a necessary evil.
I’ve had macs for 20 years, and I’ve find them extremely reliable. After some glitches, I’m on my way!
