This might be a bit of blasphemy for many #MacOSX lovers out there, but I think #Marvericks is becoming my favorite over #MacOSXsnowleopard 😬

After many many many hours, both #Macbookpro now dual boots with a a “classic” OSX and a “modern” OSX.

MBP11 boots #Snow #MacOSXsnowleopard  and #macOS12.

MBP13 boots #macOSMavericks and macOS 12 (Monterey)

#OpencoreLegacyPatcher is f’n awesome.

So here are the Mac #shenanigans I am getting into:
1) Swap out 128gig ssd to 480gig in 2011 #MacBookPro
2) Restore backup of #MacOSXsnowleopard
3) Set up partition to dual boot, hopefully, #macOSMonterey

While also:
4) Do fresh install of #macOSMavericks to the 2013 MBP
5) partition drive to dual boot Monterey.

Then I will have some old and “newish” OS to play around with both MBP

Last night I had the 2011 #macbook pro running #MacOSXsnowleopard side by side next to the 2013 macbook pro running #Monterey. It was crazy seeing how much has changed but also how much stayed the same.

I like the #QOL improvements that #Apple has made to their OS (not including #MacOS26Tahoe) but I do miss the older #skeuomorphic and stylings of the earlier #OSX; it just had more character.

I think I have been surfing the web more this week on my “ancient” #macbook_pro running #MacOSXsnowleopard than any of my other available devices individually 🤯

Believe it or not, this toot was posted by a 15 year old #Macbook running #MacOSXsnowleopard. Life is pretty good right now.
