This is how Apple rolls | Tablets | Macworld →
They take something small, simple, and painstakingly well considered. They ruthlessly cut features to derive the absolute minimum core product they can start with. They polish those features to a shiny intensity.Try this with your next Mac (or, for the daring who wish to clone, wipe and start from scratch): Instead of using Migration Assistant to transfer Applications and Settings from the old Mac, try using the machine fresh out of the box. Then, install and transfer applications and settings only when absolutely needed. My bet is, most will be surprised at how little they end up adding back. It could be an interesting experiment at least.
As always very insightful post. It describes exactly what I’ve been doing. Whenever a new version of OSX came out I’ve always opted for a clean install. It’s also exactly what I’ll be doing once my new Macbook Pro arrives in a few days. Great advice
