portable in a way that no other computer I've ever owned has ever felt that portable.

Aaron has an M1 MacBook Air.

I also really like that computer, but it feels like a boat compared to the 12-inch MacBook.

It was just unbelievably light and cool and fun.

And I would love for them to go that route, but I think this is just going to be something that's smaller and cheaper and mostly unremarkable.

Yeah, that's a big difference.

I do love the Magic Keyboard and iPad combination, but you're right.

It is not light by any stretch of the imagination.

I'm excited to see how next week turns out.

I'm very curious to see what they do launch, what they do announce.

I'm starting to get a little bit of the itch to replace my M3 Max MacBook Pro only a teeny bit because it's really an incredible computer and I have nothing to complain about.

see also my car um but i'm starting to get a little bit of the itch so i'm starting to kind of think to myself well maybe and i don't think this is happening next week but when the like oled touchscreen allegedly launches i think german has most recently said at the end of the year maybe i'll do something then so i can try the touchscreen even though i don't

think there's anything about that that like i don't want to touch screen macbook pro but i feel like for the show if nothing else i need to get one and try it so we'll see what happens but i'm very excited for next weekend to see even if it's you know kind of silly stuff that is just press releases or whatever i'm still excited to see what apple has to say so we'll see

All right, moving on.

Apple apparently has been planning to and continues to plan to make some Mac minis in the United States.

They put up a newsroom post about this as we record this thing yesterday, the day before yesterday.

Yeah, yesterday.

So Apple on February 24th announced a significant expansion of factory operations in Houston.

Sorry, I'm reading from the newsroom post.

Bringing the future production of Mac mini to the U.S.
