An interesting day. 4.25 miles on foot. 3 bus rides. 1 metro ride. Covid Vax #4. And, I took 1 old Mac Book Pro and 3 iPads to the Apple store. I use one of the iPad all the time. That one is an early Gen 5 mini. I also have a Gen 1 mini. And some vague iPad Pro that I really use mostly as a 2nd or 3rd monitor and as a viewing platform for Zoom Yoga. The Gen 5 mini came home with me as did a Gen 6 mini. The rest stayed at the Apple Store. All the money I got for the old gear went to the new Mini. Which I totally don’t need. But how many more years do I have to get new stuff?
I also took the hospital’s computer back to the hospital. I got it last year when the Macbook Pro ($300 for it) was being flakey. But I really rather use my Mac and VMWare. So, no need to keep an HP in the Old Bat Cave. With a rather grime Post-It note that said “If I am dead, please return this computer to Employee Health at Virginia Hospital Center”
I may turn the Gen 5 in for cash after I am sure the new one is working. But knowing me, I’ll keep it around for “just in case”.
And, I got the 4th Covid shot today. I have had 3 Pfizers. Switched to Moderna for this one. Will report tomorrow about side effects. If any.
