It’s basically adobe’s fault. I had to work with someone who only used Adobe 2015 which doesn’t work with Lion, which is what I was on. Apple only allows you to upgrade to the latest version of their OS, so I ended up stuck with Sierra. On windows 7 I have none of these problems. I can use whichever version of adobe products I want without having to change OS versions or jump through any other hoops. I can also upgrade things like video cards/CPUs/Motherboards without all the issues you have with Apple systems.

Out of curiosity, why move to Sierra ? From: Sam Bowling [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, 09 December 2016 5:13 AM To: [email protected] Subject: OT dual Xeon 1366 workstation motherboard. I’m in the process of replacing my 2010 mac pro with a windows system because Sierra is the biggest pile of crap OS I’ve ever used. I’m planning on putting together a dual 6 core LGA 1366 system using two Xeon 3.6 cpus. I’m also planning on having about 12TB (about 6-8 drives) of storage since I can no longer index/reliably search external NAS systems on any of the major operating systems (my NAS will only be used for backups in the future). I have a single core supermicro motherboard in my FreeNAS system, but it’s extremely slow to boot up and I don’t know how well a supermicro or any server motherboard would work with or fit a large GeForce video card as a workstation. If anyone has any recommendations on a reliable dual lga 1366 motherboard that is not proprietary like Dell or HP I would really appreciate it. This communication is intended for the addressee only.
