I have Macbook Pro 13" mid-2010 and have always upgraded OS X. This is first time i am planning to do a clean install of El Capitan. I was hoping to get some expert tips before I start this activity. Even though i can do some configuration later, i would like to do it right first time.
I am sole user of MAC, but occasionally i create disposable user for testing purpose (I am java developer, and recently started learning iOS development).
1. For all system activities like installation / upgrades / user & system management etc should I have a separate "admin" user? And for my regular use I can have standard user. (Currently i have single user with ALL access)
2. Is it advisable to install bootcamp during OS install? I have never done it. But for Windows 7 I found that after OSX is installed i cannot install Windows 7 using bootcamp. So is it possible / advisable to have bootcamp with Windows partition + OSX partition. If so, can I install El Capitan with bootcamp right now and complete El Capitan. But install Windows later?
3. If I want to try developer / beta versions of OSX / iOS - how do you manage running two OSX? Any recommendations?
Thanks!
