Double Bid, Sticker Shock

And let's maybe start with this first piece where we've got Mac OS 27.

And I'll let any of you start with what you want to say in terms of the new upgrades.

Yeah, let's see.

It is supposed to come out.

So one thing to remember is for anyone who decided they wanted to run the this is a good time to go into system settings, general software update and turn off beta updates because you probably want to stay on the stable version for a while.

And, you know, it lets you do things like leave reviews for software.

And if you have an issue, it's easier.

If you have to restore your software, it's easier.

But that's my note on

it.

Brett, do you have anything else? Because I know you'd put some notes in.

Yeah, my addition to the show notes for today were two things.

One, there's an article that talks about the release schedule around various time zones.

So you look at MacRumors, they provided a nice table so you can find out about what time of the day tomorrow the final version of the software will be released.

For me in the Pacific time zone here in California, I get the 10 a.m. release.

So I think that's going to be around lunchtime for the other panelists here.

The second item I put in was related to two features that were announced for the Mac OS and iOS 27 versions that will not be shipping in the original release.

And those are the use of Apple intelligence to update passwords that are outdated or compromised.

And the other is messages feature where it would suggest events and reminders based on your conversations you're having.

But otherwise, it looks like it's going to be a really stable release and really nice.

So I will be updating my MacBook Neo on day one to the new software, and I'm anxious to try it out.

So I'm going to ask Dave for some help

on this.

I'm currently running the developer beta on Mac OS 26, I guess, or 20, I don't know, 26, 27.

Do I shut that off and then wind up uploading the current complete version of 27? What happens if I just leave it on? Do I roll into the 28 developer beta or...
