[James Linder]

Thanks for the answer, to Chris too.
When catalena was relrased there were a flurry of ‘don’t rush’ type posts. I was checking if ‘dont rush to catelena’ was still the general opinion.
I have not yet even received my macbook (tomorrow :-) so it is that new.
From an engineering point of view it makes sense to limit the os but is still um irritating
