consolidation
« on: March 12, 2022, 09:30:18 AM »
My 2011 MBP is really starting to show its age (much like its owner), however SHMBO's 2015 MB AIR is still purring right along (just like its owner) Catalina 10.15.7. Serious consideration given to a refurb MBair to replace it. She asked why don't I consider just creating a new user on her mbair and move all my "STUFF" over. Couldn't think of a good reason not to. Any ideas about the pitfalls should I go that route. There is plenty of disk space I think. How about e mail??

My wife and I share a 2019 MacBook Pro running macOS Monterey. Mac is good about keeping each of our logins separated from one another. We even share 1Password, a third party app.

I don't see any pitfalls sharing except for unlocking the MBPro with my Apple Watch. That is kind of hit and miss.
