Look forward to its release! Looks like some cool new features are coming, hoping for nvidia web drivers and support for the rest of my hardware

Is there gonna be support for legacy (bios) motherboards? I don't know if the changes on High Sierra affects how the installation works.

Wow, the new finder "expanded sidebar" is a feature I'm missing since OS X (EVER).
And OS X is now 16 years old (not 10, dear iPhone users ).

Wha...? What are you talking about? I don't see anything different about Finder's Sidebar.

Today Golden Master was suppose to be launched. I do not understand. Several beta builds one after the other, then stop. Some of us, especially those using legacy boards, need some time to test it before the official launch. Why iPhone goes before the Mac?

Interested in the new file system. (APFS) Curious how much better (speed/security) it will be over HFS+.

An interesting read about the conversion.

With this new update should I get the gtx 1060 ssc or the rx 580? No gaming just final cut and the adobe creative cloud apps

You're stuck between a rock and a hard place there. FCPX and the MacOS, in general, will be faster under the RX 580 while Adobe Cloud will be faster using the Nvidia card. I'm running an R9 280X and I'm able to edit 4K video without issues on FCPX. Frankly, Adobe Cloud is optimized for Windows these days. It's a mess on the Mac.
