Upgrading to macOS Monterey?

As always with the release of a new major version of the operating system, we ask ourselves this question. Even if the answer always looks the same, it may differ slightly with macOS Monterey, available since Monday…

Indeed, the fans of the brand are in the starting blocks, because this version could have been specially optimized for various devices that are driven by Apple chips, namely M1, M1 Pro and M1 Max. …so that some jobs are EXCEPT!

Exclusive offers for Apple M1, M1 pro and M1 Max…

while traveling This feature listI enjoyed discovering those that were closely preserved for the owners of the new crowned gems. I spotted a great series which is listed below in italics, as it is taken directly from the Apple website.

macOS Monterey: My comment?

There’s now something a little specific about owning a Mac powered by a home-made, backed M1 chip Mac OS Monterey. These exclusive offerings – and other features that may not be available today – give Apple an exclusive look with increased performance with its own chips…

Be warned, however, that this little game has some downsides. By not treating all machines equally, Apple may be publishing part of the branch you’re sitting on. And then, remember that it’s always dangerous to fall for the final update right away. So caution is in place…
