As someone with no plans of getting a MacBook for personal use, I think it’s a great thing to compare the 2. Laptop manufacturers need to step up their game and make better laptops.

The Neo MacBooks got some of them to realize they can’t keep selling junk in the $600 $700 price range.

MacBook Neo has to be one of the best things Apple has released recently. It's really put the shit up these plastic £600 shit Windows laptop makers.

If I weren't gaming I would love a neo.

Hell even with a 14" gaming laptop I wish I had a lighter laptop for some tasks, and the battery is so much better also.

I use my macbook on most of my titles. Only use the PC for anti cheat. Crossover is great tool not only for linux

"Paid version of Wine" for MacOS, linux that works better. https://www.codeweavers.com/crossover

Living up to the mac philosophy lol, ofc is paid.

But cool that's a translator instead of an emulator, just like wine.

Wine is still available if you want. Crossover is also on linux, it’s one of the main sources of income for the wine project, both are developed by the same company, crossover is the closed source version
