Confess.
I know you bought an apple macbook anon-kun.
>>
>>108774899
No, but I am thinking of getting a mac mini in the future I have heard they are great for running AI.

I want a MacBook Pro. The RTX 5090 mobile is limited to 24GB VRAM but the M5's GPU can use more than that.

>>108774899
I can't, all my external drives are NTFS, Btrfs and ext4.

My Apple Mac is aging and doesn't run macOS very well any more, but it's a competent Windows 10 machine that I still use.
>>
>>108774899
I stole it.

I have never once bought an Apple device. All of them were given to me for free.

I bought a Macbook Air because I got sick of Windows 11
>>
>>108774899
I have never bought an Apple product. Tho one time, I advised a relative to buy an iPad for her use case.
>>
>>108774899
i bought an m1 mac and it's the best secondary pc i've ever owned even 5.5 years on and i have zero desire to upgrade. no windows laptop or chromebook ever lasted me this long
couldn't imagine using a mac as a desktop though, it's a toy OS for laptops
>>
>>108774899
I've been using an iPhone 6S for too long and still do.
I don't know what other phone to migrate to.
>>
>>108774899
M4 pro is the best laptop I ever owned, eith only some very minor gripes I have. MacOS has some odd design choices but it’s more or less fine.
shit’s expensive tho

I do run linux on my desktop but this is a strange comment. Macos pretty much IS linux, it’s very easy to do anything you want with it, any guardrails are easy to turn off. It’s not at all similar to ios/ipados which are the closed down toylike OS

>>108774899
I use a Macbook Air with the 16GB/1TB configuration as a travel laptop. It's lightweight and silicon is based.

>>108774899
i have a macbook, a mac mini, an ipad (waste of fucking money i tell ya), an iphone, and airpods. thanks for asking
>>
I bought a Mac Mini M4 base model just weeks ago for less than 600 eurodollar, pretty funny that right after Apple stopped selling these
I like the OS enough I might turn my desktop PC into some sort of console like a steam machine (but more powerful) and use that instead, but it does have a few nuggets of shit here and there.

I bought a macbook air in 2014 and it only just died (my fault). I'm strongly considering buying another one, but is there much of a difference between the air and 'neo'?
Picrel are the specs, obviously the air is better but it costs literally twice the price ($1100 vs $600). I already have a shitload of external storage so that doesn't bother me and I don't think the processing speeds would matter to me much considering I just use it for writing and emails when travelling or outside.
>>
>>108777591
For anything ever so slightly intensive on the neo you're going to have to grab these because it throttles like shit
I think for virtualization (ARM) there's some limitations as well
If your usage is web browsing and writing emails I would question the need to spend 600 bucks on a laptop in the first place but I'm sure it can do that fine

I failed to mention that you could always look for the used/refurbished market
>>
>>108777591
At least originally Neos were the solution to get rid of botched boards, similiarly to processor binning.
It sounds to me that Neo is plenty for your use
>>
>>108777613
>>108777618
>>108777629
Yeah, I will be looking at a used one, forgot to mention that kek. I'll see what looks like good value. Thanks for the info.
>>
>>108774899
I confess, it's also pink, how did you know?
>>
>>108777354
>macbook and a mini
>airpods
>but ipad is the money waste
idk man, as long as you can’t use a pencil on macbook ipad clearly has a niche
owning both a macbook and a mini seems more questionable, unless you’re one of them openclaw niggas
>>
>>108777652
Neo is for facebook moms. It’s usable but by no means good unless all you need is google sheets, youtube, web browsing and some very simple tasks like text editing. I’d much rather get a used m4/m5 air, or maybe even try to snipe an m4 pro if you’re not in a rush.
