Reading specs of the new MacBook Neo (https://www.apple.com/au/macbook-neo/specs/ ). With an A18 Pro CPU (same as iPhone 16 Pro), it seems a great entry-level Mac if you don't need a lot of grunt, but want the flexibility of macOS over iOS/iPadOS. My main surprise is the USB 2.0 USB-C port. Recipe for confusion!

    If you think of it as iPhone 16 Pro hardware with keyboard/trackpad etc, it makes sense that it might only have a single USB 3.2 Gen 2×1 port on-board, but having 2 identical unlabelled adjacent ports isn't great UX.
