Ik woonde laatst zo'n zoom-meeting bij over het plaatsen van windmolens.
Erg veel #NIMBY !Een erg hartnekkig argument was dat windmolens de vogelstand zou 'decimeren'.
Er is bijna nooit aandacht genoeg voor substantiele tegen argumenten, dus koos ik voor:
"Heeft U misschien een kat in huis?"
GEEN KATTEN IN MIJN ACHTERTUIN !Voor wie wat meer achtergrond wil over mijn standpunt (én het verband) over katten; NIMBY en windmolens
verwijs ik graag naar een filmpje van Rosie.
Een ingenieur van windmolens, die met een 12 minuten filmpje dieper in gaat op het zgn decimeren van vogels door windmolens.Thx Rosie ❤️

Diese Koalition ist ihr eigenes Problem
Die Koalition betreibt eine widersprüchliche und rückwärtsgewandte Politik. Katharina Reiche ist eine Lobbyistin der Energieindustrie. Die strategische Ausrichtung ihrer Energiepolitik wird das Land – wenn sich die vorgelegten Gesetzentwürfe so durchsetzen – nicht weiter bringen, sondern uneinholbar zurückwerfen. Ihre gerade vorgelegte Strategie, die Entschädigungen für Ökostromanbieter, deren Strom nicht angenommen wird, weil wieder einmal französischer Atomstrom das Netz verstopft, wird nicht nur den Ausbau der Erneuerbaren aufhalten, sondern auch vielen Gemeinden schaden, die in Windkraft- oder Solaranlagen investiert haben, um autarker zu werden und sich damit eigene Einnahmen für kommunale Zwecke verschafft haben. Und das ist nicht der einzige Bereich, in dem sie daran geht, die Wirtschaft zu behindern und zu schädigen.
Ideologische Scheuklappe: Zentralismus der Energieversorgung
Reiche betreibt eine Energiepolitik, die nicht nur vorgibt, “technikoffen” zu sein, ohne überhaupt zu wissen, was sie damit meint: Technik war und ist immer offen, sie folgt nur der Physik und der Ökonomie. Reiche verfolgt vor allem eine zentralistische Energiepolitik, die die Vorherrschaft der Energiekonzerne ENBW, E-On und RWE und der Gas- und Ölindustrie trotz Kohleausstieg in Zukunft sichern will und deshalb gegen besseres Wissen versucht, wie es schon einmal die FDP/CDU Politik geschafft hat, die Alternativenergien so zu diskriminieren, dass die entsprechenden Hersteller in Schwierigkeiten kommen. Damals sind die weltweit führenden Solarhersteller aus Deutschland, wie Solarworld pleite gegangen und das Know-how und Arbeitsplätze sind nach China abgewandert.
Beim “Heizungsgesetz” zeigt sich ideologisch voreingenommene Inkompetenz
Es ist folglich kein Wunder, dass das der CDU/CSU verhasste “Heizungsgesetz” Robert Habecks bisher nicht angefasst worden ist. So mies, dass es angeblich “sofort abgeschafft” werden müsse, ist es wohl tatsächlich gar nicht, gibt es doch technisch und pysikalisch keine bessere Möglichkeit, als mit Wärmepumpen und Solarunterstützung oder auch ohne letztere aus einer Kilowattstunde Strom sechs Kilowattstunden Wärme zu machen. Heizungsbau und Industrie boomen, die Anlagen werden immer günstiger und aus der Wirtschaft hört man, dass sie am besten arbeiten kann, wenn die Gesetze so bleiben, wie sie sind. Außerdem ist eine dezentrale Energieversorgung ohne lange Übertragungswege nicht nur ökonomischer im Betrieb, sondern auch resilienter und weniger Angriffen im Kriegsfall ausgesetzt, wie täglich in der Ukraine sichtbar wird. Aber auch hier will Frau Reiche möglichst bald wieder Unsicherheit schaffen. Noch sind unsere Unternehmen bei Wärmepunpen führend aber wie lange noch?
“Technikoffenheit” hat es immer gegeben, Autokrise ist hausgemacht
Mit dem völlig unsinnigen und energiepolitisch aussichtslosen Herumgeeiere mit der angeblich “tollen Zukunft” von “E-Fuels” wird die Autoindustrie davon abgehalten, sich strategisch neu aufzustellen und in die einzig richtige und strategisch erfolgreiche Technik zu investieren, nämlich in die Elektromobilität. Die deutsche Autowirtschaft befindet sich derzeit in einer Krise, die aber nur zu winzigen Teilen darauf zurückzuführen ist, dass inzwischen China massenhaft Elektroautos produziert und subventioniert exportiert. Denn nicht das verunsichert die Käufer:innen, auch nicht das dumme Geschwätz der AfD und Trumps und anderer Klimaleugner, sondern dass CDU/CSU, allen voran Markus Söder diesen Blödsinn aufnehmen und übernehmen. Die Absatzkrise der Automobilwirtschaft hat drei hausgemachte Ursachen.
Erstens: Es trifft zu, dass man mit großen Autos und Luxusautos mehr Geld verdienen kann, als mit Kleinwagen. Diese phänomenale Erkenntnis haben in den vergangenen Jahren, so hört man hinter vorgehaltener Hand aus allen Automobilkonzernen, Scharen von Beratungsunternehmen in den Chefetagen aller Konzerne den Managern als “neue” Strategie verkauft. Nun mag das ja für Mercedes-Benz, Rolls Royce, auch für BMW und Porsche eine gangbare Strategie sein. Nur wenn auch Volkswagen – wie der Name schon sagt – und Ford, bei dessen Namen man hierzulande sofort “Fiesta” assoziiert, meinen, dieselbe Strategie verfolgen zu müssen, geht das halt schief. Warum, weil Berater größtenteils Betriebswirte sind und von Volkswirtschaft nicht die Bohne verstehen und keine Minute nachdenken, wieviele Menschen es gibt, die sich solche Autos leisten können.
Zweitens: Zumal Daimler mit Auslaufen der A-Klasse, BMW-Einstellung des 1er und Audi mit Ende des A1 sich der Möglichkeit selbst beraubt haben, kleine, relativ luxuriöse Autos für die nachwachsende Generation zu bauen und sich damit Kund:innennachwuchs heranzuziehen. Ola Källenius hat das erkannt und das Ruder herumgerissen und BMW und VW haben die größten Probleme, dem zu folgen, Ford hat eine massive Existenzkrise auf dem gesamten europäischen Markt.
Drittens: Drang zu Häßlichkeit und Größenwahn – interessanterweise gibt es – im Gegensatz zu Verbrennern, bei denen Gewicht und Motorgröße von der EU limitiert sind – durch Flottenverbrauch – für neue E-Autos keinerlei Limit, zu bauen und zu vertreiben. Das wiederum führt zu unsinnigem Wachstum der Kisten, zumeist SUVs, die zwei, drei, manche sogar vier Tonnen auf die Waage bringen, weil sie Batterien mit Reichweiten von bis zu 800 km meinen, verbauen zu müssen und dann bis zu 1.000 e-PS brauchen, um diese Wuchtbrummen noch annehmbar zu beschleunigen. Dazu beschäftigen alle Konzerne Designer, die aggressive, Brutalität ausstrahlende Fronten entwerfen, Linien nicht nach Eleganz zeichnen, sondern weil sich geknickte Bleche dünner verarbeiten lassen, sodass am Ende Vehikel unsere Straßen und Städte verstellen, die einem Kampfpanzer ähnlicher sind, als einer Familienkutsche. Am besten in Schwarz, Silber, und Grau in allen Schattierungen.
25 Jahre subventionierte Sackgassen der Technik
Es gäbe also viel zu tun, um zu helfen, dass die Automobilbranche, von der direkt oder indirekt 25% der Volkswirtschaft abhängen, auf einen ökonomisch UND ökologisch richtigen Kurs zurück zu bringen, aber was macht Reiche: Ablenkungsmanöver durch Hybridtechnik, E-Fuels, die seit Jahren gescheitert sind und nie in nennenswertem Umfang auf den Markt kamen, weil ihre Produktion Energie kostet und vernichtet, anstatt sie sinnbringend umzuwandeln. Das ist einfache Physik – der Satz von der Energieerhaltung. Seit 25 Jahren fuhr diese Technik immer wieder gegen die Wand: Die Methanol-Brennstoffzelle – entwickelt von Ford, General Motors, Mercedes und VW – erinnern Sie sich noch an die erste A-Klasse, den Touran, Opel Zafira und Ford D-Max? Da sollten die rein und die Ölkonzerne haben das mit der Weigerung, Methanol-Zapfsäulen aufzustellen, verhindert. Dann die “SunDiesel” Strategie von VW und Mercedes, die mit von der Firma “Choren” erzeugtem Biodiesel fahren wollten – ein 900 Millionen Subventionsgrab, das letztlich in den 10er Jahren abgewickelt wurde.
Aus Desastern nichts gelernt
Angesichts dieses und weiterer Desaster wie etwa der Ölgewinnung aus der Jathropha-Pflanze und der Nischentechnik Wasserstoff-Brennstoffzelle im PKW wünscht sich Gitta Connemann, Staatssekretärin im Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Energie auf den Vorhalt, dass diese E-Fuels teuer und ernergetischer Unsinn seien, von dem die Wisssenschaft warnt: “Wissenschaft kann sich irren und ich wünsche mir vor allem Offenheit” – für Unsinn . Das klingt anhand physikalischer Fakten wie dem Kernsatz der Thermodynamik etwa so seriös, wie die Corona-Leugner, die Maskanpflicht als Erstickungsgefahr für Kinder und Impfung für eine Erfindung dunkler Mächte halten, der Menschheit dadurch heimlich Chips ins Hirn zu pflanzen. Aber dieselbe Kompetenz hat Frau Connemann ja schon bei der Analyse von Teilzeitbeschäftigung als “Lifestyle-Teilzeit” bewiesen.
EU-Datenschutz: Europas Resilienz gegen US-Tech-Konzerne schwächen statt stärken
Tut die CDU/CSU in der Bundesregierung schon im Energiebereich alles ihr mögliche, um eine wirtschaftlich verunsicherte Schlüsselbranche noch weiter zu verunsichern, hat sie auch in Sachen Resilienz der EU gegen die manipulativen Algorithmen der US- und chinesischen (a)sozialen Plattformen keine schlüssige Strategie. Mit dem “Omnibus” Gesetz der EU sollen wesentliche Schutzmechanismen der Datenschutz-Grundverordnung, die inzwischen weltweit so angesehen ist, dass Brasilien, Großbritannien und die Schweiz an ihr festhalten, China sich sogar in Teilen ihrer Gesetze daran orientiert, verwässert werden. Der Grundrechtsschutz der EU-Bürger gegen übergriffige US-Plattformen wird unter dem Deckmäntelchen angeblichem “Bürokratieabbaus”aufgeweicht und durchlöchert, ebenso der “Digital Markets Act” und der noch gar nicht umgesetzte “AI-Act” der EU. Kompensieren soll die Datenschutzlöcher dann ein Handy- und Plattformverbot für Jugendliche unter 16, das tief in deren Grundrecht auf Informationsfreiheit eingreift. Nicht zuletzt, weil die Politik zu feige ist, gegen die US-Tech-konzerne konsequent Recht durchzusetzen und für Gewalt und Pornografie saftige Strafen zu verhängen, wenn sie nicht aus dem Netz entfernt werden. Und die Sozis sehen zu und machen alles mit. In Baden Württemberg stehen sie deshalb bei 8 Prozent.
Die Personalberaterfrage “Wo sehen Sie sich in fünf Jahren?” darf dieser Bundesregierung wohl nicht gestellt werden.

Wasser – immer schon ein Thema
Der 22. März ist seit 1993 der Weltwassertag und wurde 1992 von der UN-Generalversammlung beschlossen. Seit 2003 wird der Weltwassertag von der UN-Wasser organisiert und wird unter ein bestimmtes Motto gestellt. Zu diesem Anlass haben wir uns in der Retrodigitalisierung Werke zum Thema Wasser herausgesucht.
Wasser ist für unser Leben unverzichtbar und sehr wertvoll. Die besonderen Eigenschaften von Wasser spielen auch in den Bereichen der Technik, Physik, Chemie oder Biologie, die auch zu den Sammelgebieten der TIB gehören, eine große Rolle. Egal ob im flüssigen Zustand als Wasser, gefroren als Eis oder als gasförmigen Wasserdampf: Wasser zeigt sich in allen Lebensbereichen und in der Wissenschaft. Das Thema Wasser findet sich auch im Altbestand der TIB und zeigt, dass Wasser schon in der Vergangenheit ein wichtiges Thema war.
Als technische Bibliothek haben wir zum Beispiel einige Werke im Bereich des Bauwesens. Wassermühlen waren besonders beliebt, aber auch andere Bauwerke, die im Zusammenhang mit Wasser stehen. Wir haben eine kleine Auswahl an digitalisierten Werken zusammengestellt:
- Theorie und Bau der Wasser-Räder (1858)
- Der Wasser-Mahlmühlen-Bau, oder Anleitung zur richtigen Construction sämmtlicher beim Mühlenbau vorkommenden hölzernen und eisernen Räderwerke und Gerinne, mit besonderer Beziehung auf die von Wasserkraft zu betreibenden Mahlmühlen (Atlas) (1856)

- Vollständiges, theoretisch-praktisches Handbuch der Mühlenbaukunst, oder gründliche und allgemein-verständliche Anleitung zur Construction sämmtlicher neu anzulegender und zur richtigen Beurtheilung bereits vorhandener, durch Wasser, Wind, Dampf und lebendige Kräfte zu betreibenden Mühlewerke, welche durch Mahlen, Schneiden, Stampfen und Hämmern im praktischen Leben von Wichtigkeit sind (1. Band + 2. Band) (1840)

Band, Atlas) (1832)
- Worinnen enthalten: die Weise, wie der Grund der Schleußen in einem schlechten Erdboden zu legen ist. Beyspiel dessen an der ehemaligen Schleuße im Bassin zu Dünkirchen. Beschreibung mittelmäßiger Schleußen, das Wasser zum Vortheil eines See-Hafens zu dirigiren. Bau der hölzernen Schleußenböden. Vom rechten Gebrauch der Spundpfähle. Von Anlage der Roste zu den Schleußenböden. Von dem dazu gehörigen Eisenwert. (Zweyter Theil, Dritte Ausgabe der Version) (1767)
- Enthaltend: eine umständliche Beschreibung der Maschinen zu Vertiefung der Seehäven. Von Gründung im Meere, durch eingesenkte große Steine: durch Kästen, welche mit trockenem Mauerwerke angefüllet und ins Meer gesenket werden: durch über einander gelegte prismatische Kisten.

(Zweyter Theil, Neunte Ausgabe der Version) (1770)
- Beyträge zur Wasser-, Brücken- und Straßenbaukunde oder wissenschaftliche Darstellung der in den neuesten Zeiten ausgeführten oder in der Anlage begriffenen Bauwerke und Beschreibungen der vorzüglichsten Maschinen (1.–6. Heft) (1808–1812)

Thoughts On The MacBook NEO
The MacBook Neo is a nice piece of kit. If you’re in the market the price is right, the build is very good, and in my first impressions the laptop is a delight. Any of the complaints and concerns you’ve probably read or heard from those who own more kitted out Macs can be easily dismissed. At the moment. I’d venture to say that for the vast majority of everyday computer users the MacBook Neo will be a nice fit.
One of the folks I support reached out and said they wanted to obtain one, so I picked one up and did the drudge work of installing the OS update and some of the initial setup last week. We later spent some time together getting it set up the way they like. Moving from an M1 MacBook Air bought in 2022, they opted for a Citrus colored 512GB model with TouchID. The good news is there’s no real learning curve for this client when it comes to features and using the device. There is no bad news.
When I say “in the market,” my client is what I consider one of the perfect customers for the MacBook Neo. A retired senior that began using a computer later in life, later jumping on the iPhone train with the iPhone 5.
They do most of their computing on an iPhone and use a laptop for email, messaging, shopping, FaceTime, and some occasional writing. Occasionally they use Photos on a MacBook Air to manage photos, but still do most of that on an iPhone.
Of the fancy new features Apple has released over the last few years the only one they really rely on is seeing notifications from their iPhone on their laptop screen when they are using the laptop. There’s a currently a problem with that, which I’ll address later.
Given their computing needs and desires, they could probably get by without a laptop, but due to decreased finger flexibility, they feel more comfortable using a laptop for apps like Messages and Apple Mail when they are home. The only thing they connect to a port is power.
Hardware
As to the device itself, it feels great and a bit whimsical. As a MacBook Air user (13-inch, M4) I have to say that I’d love to see the guts of the Air in this form factor. They weigh the same, and the Neo is slightly smaller, but it feels tinier and more totable. You give up a bit of screen real estate with the slightly smaller display, but there is no notch. Apple may have cut features now considered defaults on the MacBook Air, but it didn’t skimp on the look and feel quality. In my opinion that and the price point are what sells the device.
We’ve long since reached a point where computing devices, whether in traditional form, or smartphones and tablets, all come with so many features that even power users don’t need or use some of what’s possible. Innovation has always curved towards adding more possibilities, as it should. In my opinion, it’s a good thing to flatten the curve a bit, offering products that don’t need all the bells and whistles.
Color
Apple is taking larger steps towards bolder color choices these days, and the Citrus color scheme for the Neo certainly is another big stride into that orchard. I personally wasn’t that attracted to it when it was unveiled, but after having the Neo around for a bit, I have to say that it not only adds to the novelty, but makes the tool feel a bit more fun. At night under a desk lamp the damn thing gives off an almost otherworldly glow.
One of Apple’s trends of the last few years is to match up UI color schemes and themes with the color chosen for the hardware. Highlights, buttons, and some text reflect and complement the color of the shell. The tinted keyboard of the Neo takes that a further step forward on the fun factor scale. That said, the citrus Neo’s color scheme, bold as it is, often leaves some text harder to read, certainly for older eyes.
We settled on choosing the dark version of the Citrus wallpaper for my client to solve this.
The A18 Pro Chip
Apple raised eyebrows announcing and releasing this new laptop powered by an iPhone chip. An older and binned A18 Pro chip. In my limited time with the Neo I haven’t noticed anything but good performance.
I’ve heard and read others state that the setup process was slower than they have experienced on M-series Apple laptops. That wasn’t my experience. Things moved along readily enough If you count the number of times you have to accept and click on permission popups as something that’s desirable in an out-of-the-box experience. But that’s unfortunately true of any of Apple’s computers.
Again, I’m experiencing this only through setting up and doing a few tutorials for my client, but the performance I’m seeing feels more than adequate to met their needs.
One thing I did notice throughout my hands on time is that the Neo takes longer to connect to a WiFi network than either my MacBook Air or iMac (both M4 devices.) In fact, it feels very much like how long an iPhone sometimes does connecting to WiFi when rebooting. That makes sense on a smartphone when a device immediately connects to a cell signal, but in an age when everything is expecting an Internet connection one way or another, (on setting up a new device one of the first things required is to establish a WiFi connection) it seems like there should be a way to not start reaching out on a previously set up, non-cellular device until after a connection is made.
Battery Life
Setting up any new computer or smartphone puts a load on battery life. That continues during the first day or so after initial setup as things sync up. After performing the first OS update I didn’t use the Neo much until after my client was with me, but even after continuing setup and tweaking a few things there was 68% battery life left. Time will tell how that goes, but given my client’s usage I don’t anticipate them having battery life issues.
Memory Management
Much was also made about the one size fits all 8GB memory cap, regardless of the storage model one chooses. My client doesn’t run a heavy load of applications or keep many tabs open, so I’m not the best judge of how good the swapping out of memory to the SSD works. Apple’s Unified Memory Architecture seems to be working as designed in my limited view. I do wonder how well it does with devices that only have a 256GB SSD if they contain a lot of data.
Screen Size
I prefer the More Space option on displays I use. My client prefers the default view. Even with More Space selected, the Neo feels very much like a one app at a time computer to me, which generally lines up with my client’s needs. I always set up a Hot Corner Shortcut with Mission Control to make window navigation easier, and that feels more necessary on the Neo in the default display mode.
Apple has a feature that allows you to click the wallpaper and move all open apps off of the screen. You can choose to do this all of the time, or only in Stage Manager. I don’t recommend Stage Manager to my clients, and I typically recommend turning off the click wallpaper to show desktop feature. In this case my client likes this fly away feature, and sees it as a bit of whimsy. Even though they prefer to keep the Dock and Menu Bar always visible. So we’ll leave it on.
Trackpad
The Neo has a different trackpad than other current MacBooks. From what I’d read previously I expected to feel more of a difference between it and the trackpad on the MacBook Air. There’s a difference certainly, but it doesn’t feel like that big of one to me. I moved back and forth between the two devices without even really thinking about it.
Notifications from iPhone
I mentioned an issue earlier with iPhone notifications flowing through to the MacBook Neo. This is a feature I use myself. It’s set up through iPhone Mirroring, which you have to open at least once in order to set up.
One of the nifty things about this feature is that you’re allowed to pick and choose which notifications flow through and those you block either on your iPhone, or on your Mac. If you choose to use this feature and set it up, you’ll see an option in your Mac’s settings to allow these notifications.
If you click on Allow Notifications from iPhone, you’ll be taken to another screen. Below the three Allow options here, you’ll see a list of any notifications you’re allowing to flow through or not from you iPhone, and whether you’ve turned them off on your iPhone or they are coming through from an app installed on your Mac. As a reference, the screenshot below is from my iMac.
On my client’s Neo, no apps appeared initially. The section above that begins with Acme Weather is blank on their Neo. There shouldn’t have been many. Regardless none were there. We called Apple Support and opened a ticket. Luckily on the first call we got a senior advisor who understood the issue. After doing some checking the situation turned into something Apple is really interested in tracking down. These are a new line of devices after all. So we were off into the land of running sysdiagnoses. We’re expecting a call back on Friday with any discoveries or solutions Apple may have come up with. Fortunately we have time still left in the return window.
At the Moment
In the opening paragraph of this post I also used the phrase “At the moment.” Two thoughts there.
First, as I’ve described my client, they are not a heavy laptop user. Those who might be looking into the MacBook Neo who are might have a different experience in both the short or long term. I’ve never yet met a computer that doesn’t slow down over time. I doubt the MacBook Neo will be any different. The difference in any performance degradation between the Neo and other Mac laptops is yet to be seen. My hunch is this first MacBook Neo will still be a winner for at least a few years, certainly if you’re a not a heavy user.
Second, the rumors are that the Neo is such a success that Apple might be running out of the binned A18Pro chips it’s using to power the MacBook Neo. Speculation on what happens if that’s true is rampant, and who really knows. Current demand has already caused a delay in shipping times, and I know that secondary retailers Walmart, Target, and Best Buy have plenty of signs, but very limited or no stock. My hunch here is that Apple will be selling MacBook Neos for quite some time, even though it might take you a while to get your hands on one.
Summing Up
To conclude, let me say that I’ve thought since Apple’s announcement of the MacBook Neo that it would prove to be a hit and a palpable one to the laptop market in general. In my brief experience setting up this one for my client and seeing their delight at the form factor, coupled with the high demand, I’ll more than double down on that thinking.
Personally, as I anticipate my computing needs becoming less in the more quickly than I’d like years to come, I could easily see myself relying on a MacBook Neo in the future.

Thoughts On The MacBook NEO
The MacBook Neo is a nice piece of kit. If you’re in the market the price is right, the build is very good, and in my first impressions the laptop is a delight. Any of the complaints and concerns you’ve probably read or heard from those who own more kitted out Macs can be easily dismissed. At the moment. I’d venture to say that for the vast majority of everyday computer users the MacBook Neo will be a nice fit.
One of the folks I support reached out and said they wanted to obtain one, so I picked one up and did the drudge work of installing the OS update and some of the initial setup last week. We later spent some time together getting it set up the way they like. Moving from an M1 MacBook Air bought in 2022, they opted for a Citrus colored 512GB model with TouchID. The good news is there’s no real learning curve for this client when it comes to features and using the device. There is no bad news.
When I say “in the market,” my client is what I consider one of the perfect customers for the MacBook Neo. A retired senior that began using a computer later in life, later jumping on the iPhone train with the iPhone 5.
They do most of their computing on an iPhone and use a laptop for email, messaging, shopping, FaceTime, and some occasional writing. Occasionally they use Photos on a MacBook Air to manage photos, but still do most of that on an iPhone.
Of the fancy new features Apple has released over the last few years the only one they really rely on is seeing notifications from their iPhone on their laptop screen when they are using the laptop. There’s a currently a problem with that, which I’ll address later.
Given their computing needs and desires, they could probably get by without a laptop, but due to decreased finger flexibility, they feel more comfortable using a laptop for apps like Messages and Apple Mail when they are home. The only thing they connect to a port is power.
Hardware
As to the device itself, it feels great and a bit whimsical. As a MacBook Air user (13-inch, M4) I have to say that I’d love to see the guts of the Air in this form factor. They weigh the same, and the Neo is slightly smaller, but it feels tinier and more totable. You give up a bit of screen real estate with the slightly smaller display, but there is no notch. Apple may have cut features now considered defaults on the MacBook Air, but it didn’t skimp on the look and feel quality. In my opinion that and the price point are what sells the device.
We’ve long since reached a point where computing devices, whether in traditional form, or smartphones and tablets, all come with so many features that even power users don’t need or use some of what’s possible. Innovation has always curved towards adding more possibilities, as it should. In my opinion, it’s a good thing to flatten the curve a bit, offering products that don’t need all the bells and whistles.
Color
Apple is taking larger steps towards bolder color choices these days, and the Citrus color scheme for the Neo certainly is another big stride into that orchard. I personally wasn’t that attracted to it when it was unveiled, but after having the Neo around for a bit, I have to say that it not only adds to the novelty, but makes the tool feel a bit more fun. At night under a desk lamp the damn thing gives off an almost otherworldly glow.
One of Apple’s trends of the last few years is to match up UI color schemes and themes with the color chosen for the hardware. Highlights, buttons, and some text reflect and complement the color of the shell. The tinted keyboard of the Neo takes that a further step forward on the fun factor scale. That said, the citrus Neo’s color scheme, bold as it is, often leaves some text harder to read, certainly for older eyes.
We settled on choosing the dark version of the Citrus wallpaper for my client to solve this.
The A18 Pro Chip
Apple raised eyebrows announcing and releasing this new laptop powered by an iPhone chip. An older and binned A18 Pro chip. In my limited time with the Neo I haven’t noticed anything but good performance.
I’ve heard and read others state that the setup process was slower than they have experienced on M-series Apple laptops. That wasn’t my experience. Things moved along readily enough If you count the number of times you have to accept and click on permission popups as something that’s desirable in an out-of-the-box experience. But that’s unfortunately true of any of Apple’s computers.
Again, I’m experiencing this only through setting up and doing a few tutorials for my client, but the performance I’m seeing feels more than adequate to met their needs.

Apple has a feature that allows you to click the wallpaper and move all open apps off of the screen. You can choose to do this all of the time, or only in Stage Manager. I don’t recommend Stage Manager to my clients, and I typically recommend turning off the click wallpaper to show desktop feature. In this case my client likes this fly away feature, and sees it as a bit of whimsy. Even though they prefer to keep the Dock and Menu Bar always visible. So we’ll leave it on.
Trackpad
The Neo has a different trackpad than other current MacBooks. From what I’d read previously I expected to feel more of a difference between it and the trackpad on the MacBook Air. There’s a difference certainly, but it doesn’t feel like that big of one to me. I moved back and forth between the two devices without even really thinking about it.
Notifications from iPhone
I mentioned an issue earlier with iPhone notifications flowing through to the MacBook Neo. This is a feature I use myself. It’s set up through iPhone Mirroring, which you have to open at least once in order to set up.
One of the nifty things about this feature is that you’re allowed to pick and choose which notifications flow through and those you block either on your iPhone, or on your Mac. If you choose to use this feature and set it up, you’ll see an option in your Mac’s settings to allow these notifications.
If you click on Allow Notifications from iPhone, you’ll be taken to another screen. Below the three Allow options here, you’ll see a list of any notifications you’re allowing to flow through or not from you iPhone, and whether you’ve turned them off on your iPhone or they are coming through from an app installed on your Mac. As a reference, the screenshot below is from my iMac.
On my client’s Neo, no apps appeared initially. The section above that begins with Acme Weather is blank on their Neo. There shouldn’t have been many. Regardless none were there. We called Apple Support and opened a ticket. Luckily on the first call we got a senior advisor who understood the issue. After doing some checking the situation turned into something Apple is really interested in tracking down. These are a new line of devices after all. So we were off into the land of running sysdiagnoses. We’re expecting a call back on Friday with any discoveries or solutions Apple may have come up with. Fortunately we have time still left in the return window.
At the Moment
In the opening paragraph of this post I also used the phrase “At the moment.” Two thoughts there.
First, as I’ve described my client, they are not a heavy laptop user. Those who might be looking into the MacBook Neo who are might have a different experience in both the short or long term. I’ve never yet met a computer that doesn’t slow down over time. I doubt the MacBook Neo will be any different. The difference in any performance degradation between the Neo and other Mac laptops is yet to be seen. My hunch is this first MacBook Neo will still be a winner for at least a few years, certainly if you’re a not a heavy user.
Second, the rumors are that the Neo is such a success that Apple might be running out of the binned A18Pro chips it’s using to power the MacBook Neo. Speculation on what happens if that’s true is rampant, and who really knows. Current demand has already caused a delay in shipping times, and I know that secondary retailers Walmart, Target, and Best Buy have plenty of signs, but very limited or no stock. My hunch here is that Apple will be selling MacBook Neos for quite some time, even though it might take you a while to get your hands on one.
Summing Up
To conclude, let me say that I’ve thought since Apple’s announcement of the MacBook Neo that it would prove to be a hit and a palpable one to the laptop market in general. In my brief experience setting up this one for my client and seeing their delight at the form factor, coupled with the high demand, I’ll more than double down on that thinking.
Personally, as I anticipate my computing needs becoming less in the more quickly than I’d like years to come, I could easily see myself relying on a MacBook Neo in the future.

Afra invites Kittin
Club Raum, Friday, June 26 at 11:00 PM GMT+2
At 16, Afra went to see a Kittin show. Here there was a moment of total clarity. From then on, vinyl became an obsession, and the Technics her closest companion.
Now, that story folds back onto itself.
Afra invites the very artist who shaped her path to take the decks with her.
Kittin stands as a true icon in electronic music. For decades, she has defined and redefined electroclash, that grimy, irreverent collision of new wave and ‘90s techno.Lineup:
