    i like macbook because it’s arm, the power efficiency and color accurate screen is really useful for editing photos…

    I plan on “upgrading” from my current mac mini to a macbook neo and using the mac mini as a little server which is better than running an x86 server that’ll eat up like 5x the electricity that this little fella takes :3

    I’d never game on a mac though but i also dont game on pc to begin with

      that sounds awesome, only reason I don’t want a neo is because of not enough ram tbh

        my mac mini has 8gb of ram and seems to be running just fine with a bunch of shit open… it’s only choked once when trying to compress a 60gb+ file with the highest level compression and even then it was ok if i just closed discord and a few browser tabs

      It’s power efficient because it has nothing powerful, MacBooks are pieces of shit

      The only thing I’ll give to MacBooks are their screens, their screens are actually pretty alright but besides that, they’re terrible

        have you used any of the newer arm macs?

        i hated the intel era and never had a mac during that time because of all the thermal throttling and shit battery, but these arm macs are objectively better bang for your buck. you sound ill informed
