So recently, my 2017 15” mbp has been giving me fits. Shutting down spontaneously, shutting down during sleep, slow starts, a few beach-balls here & there, instances when it hangs at boot - and then restarts itself, type-in my password at startup only to-be-presented with?? - you guessed it -, the sign-in screen, yet again. There’s also the three episodes when the thing would just flat out go dead for a few days only to suddenly awaken, for no apparent reason. That sort of thing.
It’s been swell.
I don’t have apple-care. The 15” custom-build space gray MacBook Pro is fourteen months old.
After tediously rebuilding & restructuring my computer on my 2010 iMac (that was like the funnest ride in the whole park, btw)..

..needless to say, I’ve been pissed.
In a last ditch effort to avoid essentially giving up on it and just writing it off as a total loss & taking my lumps like a man. And then, after securing the iMac along with a ‘reliability’ test period consistent with my workflow. I spontaneously joined the Beta program and installed Mojave ‘beta’.
Thank you Apple.
Mojave is wonderful and I’m at about an 85% certainty level when I say, “Finally, the 2017 mbp the way it was intended to be”. It meshes perfectly with the new design of the mbp, IMO.
It also appears to have awakened my comatose mbp, with vigor!
Although there will likely be little tweaks here and there to address a few details; Mojave is a good one folks! Goodbye H-Sierra, don’t let the door hit you in the..
Ironically, High Sierra runs beautifully on my 2010 iMac with a ssd drive replacement..go figure.
