Replace, the SSD has made my 2010 MBP feel like new. I seriously cannot recommend this upgrade enough, my MBP was basically a paperweight and now it runs like a dream, and the fan has not kicked in once since I upgraded either.
-
Do you guys wait for your computer to completely die before buying a new one? Or proactively replace as the device reaches end of life?
Unless you back shit up it's pretty reckless to go with the former.

I upgraded the hard drive twice and the battery twice on my mid 2010, and backup monthly. I rely on my computer too much for day to day stuff to risk not having one, so I'm of the thinking to upgrade before the hardware finally shits the bed
Snowy, what do you use for offsite and cloud backup?
-
@DougNg I use backblaze https://www.backblaze.com/. $5/month, unlimited backup and restore. Native OSX app, multiple restore points, can get a HDD shipped from them if you need a large restore etc.
And their hardware design for backup is open sourced, which is very cool too;

Backblaze is cool, love their appliance. I use a local provider though, Crashplan. RAID NAS headed by Mac Mini HTPC replicates to Crasplan in the cloud. If I need my shit I can pay them a visit with a hard drive or an array.
-
yeah they're all pretty good at that level (carbonite's another one). Awesome they're physically local to you! Have you popped in to test it out / check out their office? :).
I've read about a few more data integrity issues with crashplan than with backblaze over the years, which is why I've kept with backblaze…..
-
That may be with their peer to peer platform. I use a standard replication. Haven't visited but I found out last weekend I know their CFO

We use Mac Mail at IHUKHQ.
We use IMAP. We have certain email addresses that go to all of us (sales, shop etc etc). And we have an understanding about who answers what, but we would like to get a bit more sophisticated.
So for example, without CCing the other members, is there some way we can let them know that a particular email has been handled. Or if it cant be answered by (say) me, I can flag it for action by someone else.
Any ideas?

It's one of those things that there is no system that works for everyone in e-mail. To do it proper you need to move from e-mails to ticketing systems and let e-mails forward to the system and use it to reply from etc.
In e-mail itself, the 2 methods I've seen work;
a)1 each person gets a colour, when a message is picked up or allocated to/by that person, the colour is updated
b)Create folders for each person, drag any items to work on into the folder and leave as unread in there. Any mail not in a folder is yet to be picked up by anyone.
