Security updates sure, but you won't have the features of whatever the new OS version is. ie> mojave 10.14 icloud folder sharing, etc etc

I'm updating to Mojave after this FileVault encryption bullshit is over.... 8 hours to go lol. I looked on the Apple Support website and it says Catalina needs at least 4 gigs of RAM. I only have 4 max. So Mojave it is for now.

Yup. Also if you're not using the DVD drive anymore, you can swap it out with a hard drive caddy and have two hard drives in the laptop. Mid-2012 was the last MBP that allowed you to do that. Only takes 10 minutes to do.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

can't get my beats bluetooth earbuds to connect to my MBP no matter what I do.
EDIT: Nevermind. Had to delete the Beats from my iCloud that was attempting to use it across all platforms. Turned them back on and it connected no problem.

Yea with Macs knowing which refresh they are is key, year is less helpful as there can be multiple models in a year. I’ve seen as many as 3 minor revisions in some years.

Yeah. Specs for the new SE phone are nice for the price.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
$399-449 or so USD? So maybe $599 CDN? Good price.

So this is my first time using a non-Apple BT headset with my MacBook Pro and it switches codec from Spotify to MS Teams.
I'm listening to music and then when I go to a meeting, I can't unmute the mic unless I turn off the headset and turn it back on.
Anyone else face this issue?
