    I always keep a partitioned thumb drive with bootable versions of all the various OS systems that my extended family uses, because invariably at Christmas I end up having to solve all of their issues they’ve accumulated over the past year, and I find that having a clean boot helps immensely.

    Yes, a bootable backup is an essential tool to have for any Apple OS owner. I find it super handy and quick to have access to it when needed. Yes, it is much more convenient to download it when needed but it's an 8GB OS and being outside the United States or in a remote area where the internet is limited when it comes to speed, it can make it impossible to get the 8GB OS downloaded. So, thank you for sharing this updated video because I'm always here watching it step-by-step while creating the USB bootable drive (even though I now after 4 updates, I've become super familiar with the process) but I feel safer going through the video just in case I forget to do one of the required step or misspell sudo lol
