The Guardian | MacBook Neo review: the budget Apple laptop powered by an iPhone chip by Samuel Gibbs Consumer technology editor

Snappy performance, high-quality screen, best-in-class keyboard and trackpad show cheaper can still be great

Apple’s brand new entry-level laptop is powered by the chip from an iPhone and offers more than just the essential MacBook experience for a great price, putting the PC industry on notice.

The MacBook Neo is the first of its kind from Apple. A 13in laptop that runs on an A18 Pro chip and brings the starting price for a brand new MacBook down to £599 (€699/$599/A$899) – £500 or the equivalent less than the MacBook Air.

        It never made sense to me that the Mac Pro “had” to change away from this general design. A well-designed computer can be respected as art, but its primary purpose is still to be a computer. An all-in-one box that can be thrown in the car between gigs. Just plug in a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and your audio inputs, cameras, whatever it is you do with it. No fiddly external devices needed. The only complaints I ever heard are that it’s a bit heavy and the handles dig into your hands.

        Post-Steve Jobs comeback Apple was able to pull off making their towers an art piece *and* a functional workhorse. Why did Tim Cook-era Apple overlook and fail to make this balance? They killed the market for the product and only just started to win some of those customers back with Apple Silicon, but not without making a mess of the driver infrastructure, and making discrete GPUs impossible. This is after they broke the cadence of yearly Mac Pro refreshes to make way for 6 years of the Thermal Corner™ cylinder model, making a bet (dual GPUs with custom cooling) that wasn’t that useful to its customers, and would overheat and die.

        Why spend more to invest in the Mac platform when Dell would love to sell you a boring Windows tower that’s unopinionated and does what you need?

          A somewhat unusual "Macintosh" for this year's MARCHintosh offering...

          Here is my Atari 520ST running Spectre, a Macintosh emulator (or translator, perhaps more accurately) which features actual Macintosh Plus ROMs (user must provide) and in 1989 (along with Magic Sac which preceded it in 1986) was "the only legal Macintosh clone." Gadgets by Small, who made the device, called it 20% faster than a Mac Plus, with a 30% larger screen size (640x400 on the ST monochrome display vs. 512x342 on the early Macs). 

          The Atari 520STm shown here features an 8MHz MC68000, has been expanded to 4MB RAM (up from 512K), features an HxC2001 floppy emulator, an ACSI2STM hard disk emulator, and dual Atari RGB and monochrome monitors, switchable with a Monitor Master switchbox. The 12-inch SM124 monitor showing Pinball Construction Set for Mac is nearly identical to the early Mac monochrome displays in terms of clarity, the distinctive bluish P4-class phosphor, and its overall "presence." It is a very nice display running at a rock-solid 71Hz.

          (A similar series of devices, beginning with the A-Max, was released by ReadySoft for the Commodore Amiga in 1989, though I found the ST options more appealing, in large part due to the superb high-res, non-interlaced monochrome display the ST supported.)

            Das Datenschutz-Problem mit Push-Benachrichtigungen – sehr eindringlich und unterhaltsam erklärt von Merle Fäller

            Ich wollte nur Zulip-Notifications auf dem Handy. Also habe ich angefangen, selbst was zu bauen – und bin in ein Rabbit Hole gefallen.
            Dieser Vortrag erzählt die Geschichte, wie ich versucht habe, ein Problem zu lösen – und dabei verstanden habe, wie Push-Notifications wirklich funktionieren. Warum mein erster Ansatz nicht skaliert. Warum fast jede App Firebase oder APNs nutzt. Warum selbst Signal bei Google anklopft. Und warum das seit dem Wyden-Brief von 2023 ein dokumentiertes Privacy-Problem ist: »We kill people based on metadata.«
            Ich zeige, welche Alternativen es mit UnifiedPush und ntfy gibt, wie ich eine Bridge für Zulip gebaut habe, und warum das gleiche Problem auch für Prometheus-Alerts, Grafana-Notifications und CI/CD-Pipelines gilt. Und was das mit digitaler Souveränität zu tun hat.

              An old saying from my grandparents that went, "Not all that glitters is gold," can be perfectly applied to technology, especially the internet and social media. In fact, I'd say that nowadays almost everything is shit Especially digital activism, which from afar smells of business dealings as dirty as all the others out there. And I say this because of the fundamentalism and fanaticism with which more and more people are advocating for their preferred software or against the one they don't like.
              I don't let anyone tell me what device I'm going to use, what operating system, or what application, nor am I going to tell anyone what to do.
              Do you like Macbooks or iPhones? Do you use Windows? Do you like Linux? Are you an Ubuntu or Fedora user? Do you prefer Android?
              In my previous jobs I learned that if a government wants to find and spy on you, it will do so anyway, no matter what the hell you use. If they can remove a president from his own country they'll find you however they want, and they'll grease your ass with oil if they want to.
              Use whatever you want or whatever works well for you. For the past 36 years I've owned many computers and phones, and they're all pretty much the same.What matters is what you do with them.
              I have one laptop and one desktop, both running Arch. But if I had more computers I would install Debian, Fedora, etc. on them. I work and have fun with the machines. I think it's great that there are many Linux desktops and many distros, that there are iPhones and Android, Windows, BSD, Unix, and there should be more different things.

                              Here are Monday’s most significant analyst calls, highlighting a mix of upgrades, initiations and reiterations across sectors. UBS upgraded Adecoagro to “Buy,” citing its fertilizer business as a beneficiary of the Middle‑East conflict, while HSBC moved Carnival to “Buy,” arguing the stock is undervalued despite fuel‑related risks. Oppenheimer stuck with Nvidia and Broadcom, maintaining bullish views on those AI‑driven semiconductor names. Needham reiterated Netflix as a “Buy,” pointing to a recent price rebound after a sharp dip, and Citizens upgraded Live Nation to “outperform,” emphasizing its diversified revenue streams from live‑experience demand.

                              Tech and AI‑focused recommendations dominated the day. Wolfe upgraded CrowdStrike to “Outperform,” noting the upcoming Anthropic model could spur a cyber‑security spending surge. Morgan Stanley kept Meta overweight, lowering its price target but still viewing the stock as a top idea amid mixed sentiment on generative AI and advertising outlooks. JPMorgan initiated Seagate as “Overweight,” citing pricing tailwinds and strong demand from hyperscaler capex plans. Deutsche Bank upgraded both Colgate‑Palmolive and Celsius Holdings to “Buy,” seeing durable franchise value and growth potential in the energy‑drink segment. Needham added TSS to its coverage as a “Buy,” positioning the data‑analytics firm as an “AI gold‑rush” beneficiary.

                              Other notable calls spanned biotech, consumer and industrial stocks. BMO initiated CBIZ as “Outperform,” Bank of America started coverage of ProPetro Holding with a “Buy,” and Melius reiterated Apple as a “Buy,” highlighting strong free‑cash‑flow and upcoming product rollouts. Jefferies launched several new positions, including Vor Biopharma, Guardian Pharmacy Services and upgrades to Expedia and Instacart, emphasizing fundamentals over fear and AI‑driven growth opportunities. Overall, analysts remain cautiously optimistic, with many seeing upside catalysts in AI, supply‑chain resilience and consumer demand that could drive future market performance.

                                                        You may trust with your life but if a government asks them to enact authoritarian policies on their devices or give up their business for the whole country they are very likely to capitulate as they did in China and Hong Kong. Bilions of revenue are at stake and their main goal is to grow the profits making stakeholders happy not to fight for your freedom.

                                                        On the other hand manufacturers of more open devices may be forced to capitulate but unlike on super closed systems like iOS you still have escape hatches. Government forces the company to take down apps from their store (As China did to apps used by Hong Kong activists to coordinate and protect themselves from the police)? You can distribute an apk. Government imposes OS level age verification? You can download and install a custom firmware made in a country who didn't feel for that madness.

                                                              This change is now present in the public 26.4 release. I would guess the assumption is most people have automatic app updates enabled, and never care to manually review release notes.

                                                              I am in the opposite camp. I want to explicitly approve an app before it can update, and indie developers who actually care about their craft put a lot of work into detailed release notes that are always worth reading. ⚙️👨🏻‍💻

                                                                                    Switching to other mods left a blurry mess ... until, the BetterDisplay app! Which, for the most part, just enables HiDPI mode on your display... and now it looks great at 1600x1000!

I’ve been using a Mac since the 90s and I’ve had an iPhone since the first one came out in 2007. Nothing really all that surprising with this update.
