melcharYay - happy birthday to me. Born on a rainy Hallowe'en morning while my dad listened to baseball on radio. Until I was 5, I thought people dressed up & gave away candy because it was my birthday.
Really good birthday present was an 11th gen iPad - which is the year's culmination of presents [Xmas, Valentines, anniversary & now birthday] - and worth it. However, after the actual BUYING the 'geniuses' at the Apple store were useless at setting it up or transferring the data from my current [6 year old] iPad. Wasted 2 hours there with them unable to install the needed update to the pad, much less do the data transfer.
Back home, Trey spent an hour fixing what they messed up - essentially scrubbed it back to factory specs. Then he spent another 90 minutes doing a fresh install, then update to the current OS & then did the full data transfer. He was helped by our wifi being roughly 4x as fast as that at the Apple store. He was [& IS] awesome.
