My MAC pt2

The saga continues, Me and My Arrow, oh sorry kinda dated myself then, I meant to say My Mac and I.  A MAC is sturdy, trustworthy, dependable, yet overly temperamental device.  One inadvertent or wrong drop and drag and you've changed you life as you know it.

Here's what the newbie learned.  Unhide drives before you move files, hint, hint.  Because, believe me, trying to find a moved file structure can be like diving into a swimming pool of spaghetti noodles looking for one specific noodle?!  Especially, if the drive hidden, you don't realize it's hidden and you think you moved the data to external drive that you can't find.

It's been three days and I've backed up, moved, transferred or any relative synonym all the data from 2.5 TB drive, reformatted and renamed the primary drive, moved the primary profile to the secondary drive and cleaned up the remnants on the Main drive.  Then you know what I did?!  I implemented and kicked off Time Machine.  What get's me is it's actually working, ROFLMBO.  This thing is whizzing.  Now I just I have to bind it back to the domain and poof, I'm done or did I just jinx myself?  Oh well, I've spent three days setting up and reseting up email accounts.  Side note, Time Warner does not take kindly to end-users opening their email on the web and in an email app at the same time and not properly logging out of one of them.  It will freak out their system between 30 to 45 minutes, however they'll give you a really polite try again message, but will lock your account preventing you from getting email via web or your device.

Then I spun-up a MAC VM adding it to my collection of Windows' VMs in VMFusion.  I was on cloud 9.75 when the install completed without one, uno, hana, hiccup!  Anyway, the MAC Newb is operational again.  Now, to learn PowerShell or to not  learn PowerShell?  This is the question as I begin broadening my horizons to remake myself.  Any suggestions?
