Re: Apple Watch questions

Thanks, David. I didn't realize that the second GEN series one also had better water resistance, that's good to know. Sounds like that's the route I'll be going. Thanks for your input, it's always appreciated. Cheers, Donna Sent from my iPhone > On Feb 11, 2017, at 6:12 PM, David Chittenden

Re: Apple Watch questions

Hey Scott, Thanks for the response. The series one that I was talking about is actually a first GEN, but with the dual core processor, so should theoretically have similar speed to the second GEN. I'm thinking that probably the GPS is not worth the extra hundred dollars that it would cost. And

Hi Donna, I’m not sure it’s worth the money but I’m not sure it’s not, it’s border line. The biggest thing about the series 2 for me is it’s much faster and more responsive than the series 1. It does tend to be very sensitive though in terms of the screen activating. The GPS for me seems

Bootcamp is only used if you want to run windows directly on the Mac and not run the Mac apple OS. Generally, you would use fusion or bootcamp not both although I’m sure some folks here will give me exceptions to that. Maybe others will correct me if I’m off base here but in my mind you would
