# Ovid đź’» ### Notes 11/23/21 - Picked him up from the Apple Store. Moved my old laptop so that I could share the screen for referencing configuration. Booted her up and loaded up activity monitor and command line top to watch the processes. I always avoid using the migration assistant so that I can start clean. My main goal is to keep the machine as minimal and simple as possible. I am going to try and avoid running any x86 processes under Rosetta in my attempt to go fully ARM. I wrote a quick post about why I purchased it and why I named it Ovid @ [https://davidawindham.com/ovid](https://davidawindham.com/ovid) and I'll document the rest of the it here.   ## System --- ### Preferences **General** : Auto / Accent multi **Desktop & Screen Save** : Dark Grey Desktop color, Screen Saver 10min Monterey **Dock & Menu Bar** : Remove all default, Auto Hide Dock Left w/ Magnification, no recent apps or indicators **Mission Control** : set Hot Corners **Notifications & Focus** : turn off all notifications except Kerberos, Wallet, Calendar, Mail, Messages & Reminders.
