IF it's stable and working right why not stop upgrading? Keeping up in computer world is expensive and frustrating, and often unnecessary, I suspect your current mac has done all you've needed to do for the last 10 years and, along with that, your Adobe apps have done the same. This means I will be able to really easily switch back to High Sierra (on the same mac without rebooting) if I need support for older applications, some of which will not work with Mojave as its 32 but support is limited unlike High Sierra.

To be fair, in the world of computing a 2010 machine is pretty old and has lasted well past its intended life. Tried and tested stable systems are worth a lot in a working environment. Many very high end pro mac users preserve "mothball" a stable system and applications and stop updating it.įor many professionals, computer work is all about stability and reliability - not the access to the very latest additions added to software in latest updates. ![]()
