+## This will:
+
+- Get your laptop fully updated.

+- Enabling tap to click on the touchpad.
+
+&nbsp;
+&nbsp;
+&nbsp;
+

+
+### Bonus Step (for former Mac users) Reduce Font Scaling to Match Your Needs
+
+We received feedback that for users coming from OS X, installing GNOME Tweaks, browsing to Fonts, and reducing the font size from 1.00 to 0.80 may be preferred. 
+
+- Go to Displays, set scaling to 200%. This will look too large, so let's fix the fonts.
+- Install with:
+  
+```
+sudo dnf install gnome-tweaks -y
+```
+
+- Open Tweaks by using the <kbd>Super</kbd> or <kbd>&#8862; Win</kbd> key, search tweaks, and <kbd>⏎ Enter</kbd>.
+
+- At the top, select fonts. Now in that panel, scroll all the way down. Look for Size. Change from 1.00 to 0.80. Close Tweaks.
+
+  Note: This is for the displays for the laptop only. This will look super odd on external displays and likely too large even still.
