Thanks again, everyone, for your thoughts. I really wanted to go for the Senheissers, but that sale was gone by the time I tried to check out, as I said. I just found a sale on Senheisser HD 380 Pros, though, $99 instead of $199 on Amazon. I hadn't heard them mentioned, but I figured Senheisser

iCloud drive works a lot more like a traditional file system where you can have your own files and folders, every app gets its own folder once you run it first time as well. Regular iCloud is what you had before and it's what iOS and OS X used to call documents and data. This older system is ve

Version 6 works on OSX 10.10. So maybe you can find a discount place to buy an old copy of Fusion 6 and save a little bit. That said, it also means you might be right back at the same place when OSX 10.11 comes out. I can't totally blame VMWare when their stuff works fine and then Apple changes
