Re: new mac books

Hi, The MBP models no longer have the Boot Chime. I have the 2017 model and it does not have the Boot Chime. I'm pretty sure that all the new release models no longer have the Boot Chime. Later... Tim Kilburn Apple Teacher (with Swift Playgrounds Recognition) Jamf Certified Associate
