Freelance German-English translator originally from Pittsburgh now living in Cologne, Germany. Been using Apple computers since 1986. Industry-standard CAT (computer-assisted translation) software has had me running VMWare Fusion or now Parallels for work. Currently have an M1 MacBook Pro 14 as well as a late 2008 Mac Pro that has been upgraded with SSDs, more memory and a newer graphics card so that it still is a solid performer.
