My new 12-in MacBook arrived yesterday, and so far it might be my favorite computer I’ve owned yet. I didn’t realize how much more important portability and battery life are to me over raw power.

@mjmoriarity Awesome, congrats on the new MB. I think it's a really great machine. When I first got one, it immediately reminded me of getting the 12" PowerBook back in the day. ❤️💻
@Burk I never had a 12” PB, but I know it was well-loved. I can't get over how light the MacBook is, and it uses so little power!
@Burk @mjmoriarity Those little guys have always been well-loved by their owners; I remember hearing similar things and affection for the PowerBook 2300 (and, at the risk of really dating myself, the Duos before that!).
Of course, back in those days, Apple wasn’t trying to make laptops as tiny as physically possible, so they were always the edge-cases, a bit endangered; now we have tiny laptops and giant phones, the world turned upside down ;-)
@Burk @mjmoriarity I don't even want to think about how much my PowerBook G3 Series weighed, but I have a feeling it could have doubled as a deadly weapon!
