Some good news: I don't know if Apple had a change of heart or what, but you *can* enable Xcode's intelligence features on the MacBook Neo with 8GB RAM, including ChatGPT and Codex support. Previously, this was limited to 16GB devices — I have no idea when that switch happened? 😯
Regardless, great move, clearly intended for this device

…didn't somebody like @markgurman say that the next version of Siri was going to have an anthropomorphic Finder-style character? 😅
oh no
The MacBook Neo is basically the Walmart M1 MacBook Air. But new.
Their specs are a bit different: Neo has a better webcam, display, CPU/NPU. M1 Air had a better GPU, battery, a Force Touch trackpad.
Both had 8GB memory.
Both had 256GB storage.
Both were $599.
The A18 Pro in the MacBook Neo is 19% faster than the M2 Ultra in the Mac Pro in single-core performance (Geekbench 6).
The MacBook Neo starts at $599.
The Mac Pro, which is still for sale, starts at $6,999.
