So did any of you get the macbook neo, how is it to actually use? All the tech youtubers I follow were gushing over it when it came out and my feed was flooded with neo reviews for a while.

I didn’t buy one, but I got hands-on at an Apple Store, and was honestly impressed.

Same build quality and materials as the MacBook Pro, felt snappy and responsive for what little I did with it, really seems to be a perfect general-use laptop for probably 80% or laptop users.

Considering what some of the YouTubers and tech sites have done with them, such as editing 4K HDR videos and things like that, plus the benchmark scores, I don’t honestly think you can do better for the price, especially once refurbs are available.

System 1 had some serious limits...

o no folders within folders so files could get rather cluttered...
o only one program could run at a time (no MacPaint and MacWrite)*
o every time you quit the software it'd have to (almost) reload OS
o no safe shut down option also this was a GUI OS not text-only OS
o applications lacked option to change the directories for loading

* (though multiple "mini applet" could be run from the Apple menu)

There's actually a really good Wikipedia article on how that wasn't comprehensively addressed in Apple's software until System 5, when they added the optional MultiFinder extension, which became mandatory in System 7 (later renamed to Mac OS 7 around 7.5 or 7.6 from memory).

It's especially cool because it covers some of the pre-MultiFinder external tools, which I now want to play with..

Even after MultiFinder was standard, there were still tools like CPUDoubler (video by the author, at length) that would override its standard multitasking functionality to let you make sure applications that SHOULD be higher priority were given it, rather than having others hold them up.

Of course if the 'System' releases had been named rationally, System 5 & 6 would have been System 2.0 and System 2.1 and System 7 would have been System 3. But then, modern day Apple under the faggot Cook is back on that 'fake major release' bullshit.
