You'll see Apple's trademark logo appear on screen, then you can start setting up your computer. The first thing to do is take your Mac out of the box, connect the power cable and any relevant peripherals (keyboards and pointing devices), then hit the Power button. Setting up your Mac will take around 20 minutes, during which you'll be guided through the setup process. The current version is macOS 10.13 High Sierra, released in October 2017.

Congratulations on your new purchase-now it's time to learn how to use it! So you took the plunge and finally bought a Mac. Feel free to copy and share this with your friends and family. Got fusion installed, looking forward to having a play tomorrow when I have some time time! I hope that it has everything I need without having to think about shelling out for a copy of inventor in the future.This guide is available to download as a free PDF. The fact that fusion is available on both platforms is interesting - would probably still go for PC as i do need more bang for my buck right now. But in the 'creative professionals' arena I'm sure mac ownership is much higher. I'm not sure about the market share though - that's for desktops and I imagine the majority of offices the world over (the majority of which do non-CAD/ creative work) do run PCs. Yep, I completely see what you mean about the price. I had an old Dell P4 booting into OSX Tiger back in the day.

Hey can always get a new pc laptop and setup a dual boot with Windows 10 and OSX (hackintosh) if you want to.

The similar macbook pro would have been $700 more. But instead of a dual core i5 8gb ram, 128gb ssd and Intel graphics I got a true HT quad i7, 16gb ram, 256gb ssd, 15.6" lcd and 2 gb nvidia GTX 850m graphics. For example I just got a new laptop at work that is basically the same price as a base model macbook pro retina 13". When macs 1st switched over from PowerPC to x86-64 there was a well known "OSX tax" users had to pay for the ability to have OSX on the same hardware as a PC. As a business model why target a small % and not go for the big user base? PCs have more options in hardware and are less expensive for similar builds. OSX currently sits at 4.2% with windows (all versions) at 90.82%.
I mean mac users at their highest count never got over 7% market share. Most CAD software was simply made for PCs 1st and never really had the mac user base numbers to support a mac port. There are still a few mac only applications out there that have no equal on the PC side, Pixelmator for example. Sure macs were the go to for graphic design back in the day but honestly most, if not all graphic design software runs faster on Windows 7 and up as opposed to OSX. Stevsmith - I've currently got bootcamp installed, but unfortunately it's a tiny bit too old to support the windows-friendly bootcamp software well and it's extremely buggy. But is there a particular reqson for this? Is it just CAD tradition or is there more to it? I come from a graphic design background where macs are the norm, but I messed around with PCs loads before that so I'm fine going back to PC, but just wondering why it is how it is.
Is some of the functionality from inventor missing?Īlso, I've understood from the beginning that PCs are the way to go for CAD and I'm currently shopping for one. How can they charge $25 per month and make it free for hobbyists, students and start-ups when inventor was what. It's unbelievably cheap!!! Absolutely made my day. It's actually the first time I've checked out fusion, both because I thought it wouldn't run on my laptop and also because I assumed it would be too expensive.
