Improved performance and some app enhancements to boost productivity highlight the latest version of Apple’s desktop operating system, OS X 10.11 El Capitan. Apple on Wednesday made El Capitan available for download to its users from the Mac App Store.
“Basic operations were just quicker, and Apple did a lot of work under the hood when opening up files, 3-D graphics with Metal-supported apps, and manipulating images,” said Patrick Moorhead, principal analyst at Moor Insights & Strategy.
I ended up going back to Mavericks. I did not experience the dramatic speed improvements or perceived application response I expected from El Capitan. Also probably because my 2014 Macbook Air has a lower resolution screen. The fonts look absolutely dreadful in El Capitan and I have to say its worse then when I tried Yosemite.
Also the disc manager has been dumbed down so much its rather pointless now. Guess i'll use Mavericks until end of support then go back to Windows.
If you read the comments at the bottom of the link below, you'll find your Applecentric story, is not held by all, if not even those in the same publication.
I made the mistake of not backing up my computer before I upgraded? to 10.11. After the up grade, 10.11 did not save or import any of my e-mails. I tried to run the mail.app from the last update and it said it would not run on 10.11, so it looks like my e-mails are gone.
