Still very early stages of that. I typically like to choose the hardware that seems to be the most popular/supported. Reason being, I could spend tons of time tinkering and tweaking on my own or just hit the easy button and take advantage of the brilliance of the community.

If you want to use your computer for dual monitors, I would not suggest buying the NUC7 based on my experience. Trying to get them to work properly (and consistently) has been a major thorn in my side. In fact, I'm actually thinking of switching to an ITX build with the NZXT H1 case that just...

Nice!!!

I can confirm that HDMI audio absolutely works on nuc7 on both Mojave and Catalina. The only thing that doesn't work is volume adjustment via the menu bar as that is apparently how Apple designed it.

I'm thinking it might be a good idea to have a reference EFI for the nuc7 people in this thread. I think the 901 EFI will probably get it working, but I know there are some slight differences between the two platforms. Edit: Post 1684 has an EFI folder for NUC7 users. Hopefully @BenMiller will...

That would be awsome!

Unfortunately, Apple does this all the time - arbitrary hw restrictions to encourage people to buy new hardware smh

The old Mac Pros are so sexy. Well done!

Glad to hear that it worked for you. I've seen several people complain about disconnects and stuttering so hopefully it will be of help to others that come across your thread. Thanks for reporting back!

I use the MX Master 2S with no problems whatsoever. One tip I can pass along is to get a USB extension cable to physically move the Logitech receiver away from all of the other antennae. That helped a lot and removed any stuttering that used to be there with my old MX Master mouse. I've used the...

That looks like the Fenvi WiFi adapter I just ordered for a different project. I believe they're both based on the RTL8811AU chip. https://www.amazon.com/RTL8811AU-802-11ac-Wireless-600Mbps-Adapter/dp/B0761Q654G/ Fenvi is a few dollars cheaper fwiw

The most important piece of advice is to tell all of your friends that you're switching and turn off iMessage well in advance of the switch. You'll probably miss a bunch of messages - it can be a nightmare turning iMessage off.
