I just bought my first MacBook. I've only ever had Windows laptops, but my cheap Ideapad just started to fall apart on me, so I went with a MacBook Neo since I trust Apple's hardware engineering. I am now getting used to posting on a Mac. There's some things that are different, but really I just needed a laptop for shitposting and watching YouTube so it will do nicely I think.
>>85206102>I trust Apple's hardware engineeringHahaha lmao
>>85206102I think you mean to post this on >>>/lgbt/
>>85206111oh you rite anon u rite
>>85206110I've always used iPhones and I have no issues. And I don't think parts of this MacBook will literally detach from the other parts. I miss right-clicking though.
>>85206125Those things are unnecessarily knotted easily broken messes. Not falling apart is hardly a signifier of quality.
>>85206102I thought about getting one, but I decided against it. My shit linux laptop still works just fine for shitposting.
>>85206125just use two fingers on the trackpad or hold the control keythat last one is a leftover quirk from the time that macs came with mice that only had one button
>>85206125>I miss right-clicking though.I use a regular Logitech mouse with my macbook.
>>85206102>NeoBad idea. It's basically Apple's version of a Chromebook. Should've gotten an Air at least.
>>85207164>inb4 "its actually quite usable"I'm talking about how it will age. I know it's fine for right now, but it won't be in 5 years.
Macbooks are pretty sexy tbqh. I had one for like a week before I spilled water on it and returned it to Amazon kek. Enjoy it man
>>85207165Why is that though? Why wouldnt they be fine in 5 yrs
>>85207255Generally with computers that aren't modular/upgradeable, you want to buy something that is a bit more powerful than what you'd actually need right now so that the system is still sufficient in the future.8GB RAM is already pushing the bare minimum for basic computing tasks and likely won't be very good in the near future. 256GB internal storage is also pretty bad for a computer whose storage can't be expanded. Honestly I wouldn't settle for 512GB either if I intend to keep the computer for the next decade to 15 years. The Neo is clearly for like children and teens.
>>85206125>I miss right-clicking though.Steve Jobs had strong opinions about this. He was strongly against right-clicking. TOO COMPLEX. Ruining the user's experience.Another Steve Jobs revolution is the vitual keyboard. Nobody believed it would win. All handheld computers has a small keyboard.Now, you can buy a USB keyboard when you're sick of the tiny virtual keyboard. But before, it was integrated.
