  • OSX Mavericks 10.9 Creating a bootable USB key

    I downloaded OSX Mavericks soon as I got home, and intend on installing it in the next few days. However before I did anything with the install file, I wished to make a bootable USB key.

    The process was easy and I followed the one from the follow Macworld post here.

    Will post back some experiences with the new OS and already noticed some folks talking about being unable to play the native GoPro MP4 files. So will keep an eye out on the post here that talks about it in the coming days. Since I own a GoPro Hero 3 Silver.

  • Back to Macintosh

    I’ve been wanting to buy another Macintosh for a while, ever since I sold the Mac Mini I had earlier in the year.

    Plan was to go back to the iMac, however considering how old the current model is, it’s clearly due for update. But who knows when?

    Decided to let my wife get a new machine this year, so I ended up buying a 2nd hand iMac instead, this will do what I need it to do. Already got Lion on it and all the other items, still a bit of applications to be installed and data to be sorted out. It’s not going to happen overnight, but I will get it all done over time.

    Going to be good to have a single place where the two iPad’s can sync too.
