![]() ![]() I’m learning but I’m glad I don’t have to transition to that half-baked monstrosity for the entire work day. When I have to deal with Windows 8 or Windows Server 2012 in a VM or RDP I get a bit frustrated – not just the key combos (I could re-map, but not across every single machine I access) but also the new places you need to really fine-tune the location of the cursor to get anything to happen, and the fact that on every new machine I have to pin a slew of programs to the taskbar so I don’t have to use the new way to find crap. Currently I have a 15″ MacBook Pro retina (4-core, 16GB), and I still have my Mac Pro from 2008 (8-core, 32GB) which has served me quite well while I’ve been waiting for the new Mac Pro.Įverything I need to do in Windows I do either through RDP or in a VM (I’m a Parallels guy now, but used to prefer VMWare Fusion). Instead, users can continue to use the Windows 10 operating system on their computer, and it will receive regular updates that increase its functionality. That machine is still in service within the family (video recording / processing). I started with a MacBook Pro 17″ back in 2007 I believe. Release Date: DecemFile Name: FirebirdCS-2.5. Size: 16 MB Description: Mac OS X 10.6+ 32-bit Classic, Superclassic & Embedded. I have been using Mac hardware exclusively for several years. In a few weeks from now I will do a follow-up blog posting where I’m presenting the results of this survey. And yes – a Mac is just cool and sexy □ And the whole story about the new UI in Windows 8 doesn’t really convinced me.Īnd PLEASE don’t get me wrong: this is NOT a pro/con Windows/Mac survey/blog posting, I’m just interested in the REASONS why people are doing that shift. In my case I just wanted to try a different OS, because I have used Windows on the desktop for almost 20 years (including the DOS area), and I just wanted to see and learn something new. ![]() If yes, I invite you to leave a comment, where you should also explain your reasons why you have done that shift. Today I want to ask you a very simple question: Are you also a SQL Server Professional and running on Mac? And for serious SQL Server stuff, I’m using a RDP connection to a full-blown rack server which is hosted in the basement of my house. In my case I’m using a 2012 MacBook Air with a VMware Fusion VM where my SQL Server is installed. Since the summer of last year I have also joined that group of people, and I’m doing the same. I know a handful people who are SQL Server Professionals and using for their day-2-day job a Mac system. ![]()
