    Practicing With Affinity Photo On My M3 MacBook Pro...

    When I bought my M3, I was dead set against getting a subscription with Adobe Photoshop. So, I got a copy of Affinity Photo. It's still early days, and I'm in more or less parroting mode. I'm slowly starting to understand the program; there is definitely a learning curve. But it's important to...

    How Embarrassing-A Lesson In Purchasing A Refurbished Computer From Apple's Site

    I have no problem paying tax-but my understanding, wrongly-was that the full amount that I paid via Apple's site INCLUDED the tax. I did not realize that the amount of tax I paid depended on WHERE I picked up the M3. I thought the full transaction was taken care of via the web site.

    M3 Keyboard Covers-Recommendations?

    Actually, I don't either. 🙃 Heck, I keep food and drink on a totally separate table opposite of the M3, as well as keeping my hands VERY clean. It's mostly going to be for dust. 😎
