Now there is no good time to do any maintenance because people are going to be using the service sometime ... somewhere. Really wish we had fiber-to-the-home. All good points.

Really wish we had fiber-to-the-home.

Thanks for the heads up and link. I agree from a couple points of view. First, our ISP here in Oskaloosa (which is a fiber to the home service - not to rub it in), is very good about notifications of service maintenance which happens between 2 and 4 am in the morning. Second, as a hubby of a technology coordinator at a public school, it seems there is never a reasonable time to do maintenance tasks. As service become those its in use 24 x 7, things get hairy. To be honest, doing service from midnight to 6 am is not much fun either. Good stuff. Good article Bob. Thanks for the heads up and link.

Desktop Mac at work (college)

iPad for going between

Desktop Mac at home
11″ MacBook Air for traveling

That’s a lot of hardware and the Air is probably redundant for me since I try to leave everything at home when I travel. If I had unlimited monies …

Keeping my current MBP at my desk plugged in so much has killed the battery, despite using Watts to cycle it.
