Unbelievable, my 27 inch iMac is going to turn into a 27 inch iPad / iPhone with macOS Monterey. I wish Steve Jobs were alive. He has to be turning over in his grave to what they are doing to his baby lately (Mac). IF I WANTED AN iPad, I WOULD HAVE BOUGHT ONE!!!! :rage:

I guess it might be good for people with iPads and iPhones but I guess I’m old school and want a computer that runs like the old computers.

That might be true if Apple keeps this stuff up.

I was just reading Logitech software is sweating this new OS upgrade, may not be able to make it compatible. So if I upgrade, there goes my MX Master 2S mouse.

You could still use it without software right?

I don’t know right now. I know the mouse lost some functions on the Mac with the upgrade to Big Sur. I don’t know if they got them back as of right now.
