The MacBook Neo starts at $599.

The Mac Pro, which is still for sale, starts at $6,999.

@david @ryanpoolos @siracusa Anyone who wants to do anything on the internet?

I mean, Safari kinda sucks for a lot of stuff, and just plain doesn’t work on quite a few sites.

@ZS @ryanpoolos @siracusa I have never had Safari not work, nor found it to suck, but I know ymmv.

@david @ZS @siracusa it isn’t safari’s fault but it is the reality. Most developers don’t test their site across browsers and only use chrome. Many frameworks don’t work on safari or specifically use chrome proprietary features. 2 out of 3 bank websites I visit daily only work in chrome and proudly tell me safari is not supported. I run into this constantly. Government and public education software are the worst offenders in my experience.

@ryanpoolos @david @siracusa This is my experience, and what I alluded to.
