Default Pro Tools 12.7 installation!! WIN!

I'd put off upgrading from PT9 for a long time, mainly as my system was stable as a rock, didn't want the pain of upgrading/reloading hundreds of plug ins, I didn't want to invest in a new Mac, and am essentially, shall we say, "thrifty."
I was also concerned about potential issues with my DIGI003 Rack+ & M-Audio 2626 interfaces and didn't want to buy new Thunderbolt interfaces (see "Thrifty" above.) And I'd have to Rewire my studio completely if I did that. I love the flexibility and I/O on the DIGI003.
Finally broke down and got a 2012 refurbished 12-core Mac Pro (32G Ram, 3TB storage, SSD system drive). Spent weeks transferring PT9 and related files to one of the hard drives as a second start up disk, JUST IN CASE!

Bought the perpetual license for 12.7, downloaded all the files necessary.

Installed PT, plug ins and drivers, instruments, T-Racks, etc. (except for a bunch of plug ins I need to update) two days ago.

Fired up the system.

Everything. I mean everything. Worked. Flawlessly. On the first try.
So far.

Easiest PT upgrade I've ever done, and I've been using PT since 2003.

Now all I have to do is learn how to use all the new features.
And update my signature file. MySpace? Really?
