    Hi! I thought it would be a good idea to start a new thread focusing our reports on the performance of macOS Sierra (beta) on the oldest MacBook Pro supported: 2010 MacBook Pro. Also, we could talk about Sierra on the 2009 MacBook as well. What initially drove me to open this thread is a very...
