And in 2018, Apple can't even command a queue for the iPhone or Apple watch outside their Apple Stores on the day of their release. Stores in Birmingham and Solihull in the UK didn't have any queue that wasn't larger than any ordinary day.
Is it any faster than the latest public beta?
App open timing, preferences pane open timing, screen saver etc.

THis year, Apple did it, software wise, ios12 is a bless, macOS Mojave is very nice, watchOS 5 is fine especially with the new AW series 4
Fonts are blurry on non-retina displays-external included. Not sure why apple did this.
Honestly it’s amazing macs from 2008-2009 are still useable at all.
Not all. Mac Pros 2009 and up can run Mojave.
Always done updates rather than fresh installs. Never had an issue so far.
Mine downloaded just now. Took a couple of minutes start to finish. Must be a lot of contention at your end.
The queues have all been for the Genius Bar the past few years.
No
No matter even if you keep running High Sierra, BTMM services will be killed and stop working sometime in the future. I use BTMM to remotely manage my Airport modems. In fact, I still use the old version of the Airport utilities to check the network connection speed and the connection history of the remote Airport modems I manage but that will all be history in no time. Apple doesn’t care one bit and as far as they are concerned anything other than iOS devices and wearables are a burden to the company and they grudgingly carry on selling computers and such.
Press Restart CMD + OPTION + R, starts internet recovery. Select disk utility Erase Hard Drive, If it Asks for a name "Macintosh HD" quite disk utility Then elect install Mac OS when it asks for a location select "Macintosh HD"
Most people pre-order online now, I’ve never stood in line for any product. The Apple Watch Series 4 seems to be very popular with dates having slipped not long after pre-orders started.
Pro/Power user focussed release this year.
And next year, along with marzipan, I suspect that a great deal of the iPad iOS apps and system UI will come to the Max, which I imagine people on these forums will have some opinions about.
So be careful what you wish for!
I have the base model 2015 15" and it's running great. Some things even feel snappier to me.
that is quite discouraging ...
I will now do a full time machine backup to be able to switch back to high Sierra, if I ever find the courage to install Mojave, lol
Good to hear.
I'm kinda hesitant to upgrade my 2015 rMBP 15". But seeing a older model runs great, I might do it too. The thing is, I don't want any, and I really mean any performance hits, since I need to it run flawlessly for work and tbh there aren't (for me) any noteworthy features except better security. But checking the latest MacRumors article about the security leak makes me put off the update even further.
Sigh..... on 2011 MacBook Pro. I’ll wait till Apple releases new iMac this year since iPad replaced my mobile needs.
(For those looking to get new Macs to get Mojave, but not planning on getting MacBook Pro, DO NOT BUY. NEW UPDATE SOON. ANOTHER APPLE EVENT PLANNED THIS OCTOBER TO FOCUS ON Macs and iPad.

Sigh. Using "Back to my Mac" one last time to kick off the upgrade on my home iMac so it'll be done when I get home. Unfortunately, upgrading the iMac to Mojave removes back to my mac functionality so this is only fitting
BTMM has never been stable for me since Yosemite.
My 2018 running the latest beta isn’t seeing an update. I recently wiped it. Should I have to reinstall the beta access utility?
Now Apple is picking which cards are supported. I have an MSI Gaming Edition 280x 3GB supported under HS metal.
If I ever decided to install Mojave, that card isn't supported.
I’m seriously hoping Apple update Mac’s later this year! the iMac was 20 years old and nothing got announced, the rumoured new MacBook Air with Retina display and thinner bezels is rumoured for an October event.
