Re: [sussex_mug] Internet Backup

I’m very much a Backblaze fan. I’ve had to use it in earnest on one occasion and it performed perfectly. I previously used Carbonite but found it somewhat unintuitive and clunky – might be better now though of course. Phil Phil Ward Skype: aphilw E: phil_w...@mac.com W: philward.biz W

Re: [sussex_mug] Old Mac. New router?

Sorry to butt-in on the thread. Would that Asus be a good option Sam to replace my decidedly old and tired (coming up seven years old I think) O2 supplied router? Phil > On 26 May 2017, at 08:36, Sam - MacAmbulance wrote: > > There’s a cheaper one here : >

That’s fabulous news Sam (although maybe not the bit about stinking colds). Many, many congratulations to all three of you. But when you say, “...the next few months”, I think you probably mean, “the next 18 years” :-) Phil (and Ella) Phil Ward Skype: aphilw E: phil_w...@mac.com W

Re: [sussex_mug] 27" monitor for Mac Mini?

Funny how we all seem to face the same kind of decisions here on SMUG. I’m wondering about exactly the same strategy to replace my tired old 27” iMac with a Mac Mini and a non-Apple display. P Phil Ward Skype: aphilw E: phil_w...@mac.com <mailto:phil_w...@mac.com> W: philward.biz
