Am appreciating the discussion about workflow and which software products folks are using. My computer guru, a friend who worked for years at Adobe and who has been working with Mac products since they were first released is a real pest when it comes to upgrading. He insists that "to stay current" we need to upgrade software and when necessary hardware. He also has no interest is joining the Adobe lifetime servitude club. He turned to Affinity but has been able to keep CS6 alive through Mojave. The rumor has it that the next iteration of OSX will be the one driving a wooden stake through all these old pieces of software. Reading this thread I'm reminded of my much loved G5 with four internal drive bays. If I recall correctly, it was Firewire that did that machine in for me. Before that I had the exquisite Cube with a matching monitor...
But my third iMac, a 2013 model without a Retina display or an SSD but with a 27" monitor gives me everything. Like Ken B, I really enjoy working with Lightroom. I bought the last iteration of that software, version 6. something or other. If the next iteration of OSX won't play nicely with my Adobe software I'll ignore my friend's advice and just stay where I'm at. Like Colin says, it is ain't broke, which fix it. And the same goes for cameras with me. Yes, I'd love a few more megapixels but the Df performs beautifully for me. I may just stay here where everything just works.

Like you, I'm using LR6 and love it. I'm also still using Windows 7, which Microsoft has said they will stop supporting in 2020. That means, although it will still run, it won't receive any security updates, or any updates at all. I'll be forced to make a decision at that time. I do know I'm not buying the LR prescription.
