@larand My sole "watch" is the 6th generation iPod Nano on a heavy stainless steel Hex brand band.

@indigo A terminal routine I run each time I boot up my MacBook Air prior to running a Time Machine backup moves that process from the background to the foreground. If started at the same time as a drive cloning session, Time Machine normally finishes first.

It must be the weekend. @larand is posting and company internet access restrictions mean he can't do that from work.
Looks like I might have the new iMac on Friday, not Saturday next week as originally expected.
I have ordered or bought all the extras I need for the new iMac. Front facing 4-port USB 3 hub, empty 3.5-in USB 3 HD case, 3TB ext HD & Thunderbolt 3 to T/bolt 2 adaptor.
Crossposted with Yawp. Then I came here for other stuff. Suddenly a notification that @gtwilson had replied twice appeared. But I couldn't find the replies on 10C.
Because he'd replied on Pnut.io.
Office supply store offers two different 3TB Toshiba USB 3.0 ext HDs. One is $30 more and includes automatic backup software for PCs but is Mac compatible. The cheaper one lacks the backup crapware that a Mac users doesn't need.
@kdfrawg We may maintain a degree of nostalgia for the old steam trains but imagine if they were still mainstream: the smoke those to locos put out was quite thick and smelly. The air would be too thick to breathe.
