Accidental Tech Podcast
680: A Lot of Holes in That Cheese

No, again, I'm not trying to say I expect this, but holy cow, that would be so hilarious to watch Marco and I have a crisis of whatever.

680: A Lot of Holes in That Cheese

It wouldn't have a crisis.

But, you know, here's something that's like pretty underpowered and arguably not very good in a lot of ways.

They would be amazing, though.

No, just very briefly to kind of build on what Marco was saying earlier, I had a 12-inch MacBook.

I think Underscore and I were the two biggest 12-inch MacBook fans and possibly the only 12-inch MacBook fans.

680: A Lot of Holes in That Cheese

Yeah, that's right.

But I love that thing.

680: A Lot of Holes in That Cheese

It was one of those things like when it was brand new, it was awful.

It was impossibly thin and impossibly light.

And the fact that it was woefully underpowered, and the fact that, to my recollection, the battery life was not great, and more than anything else, it had only one USB-C port, not Thunderbolt, mind you, USB-C port, which made everything difficult.

Accidental Tech Podcast
680: A Lot of Holes in That Cheese

I still love that computer.

Accidental Tech Podcast
680: A Lot of Holes in That Cheese

I absolutely adored that computer because it felt amazing.

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

Aaron has an M1 MacBook Air.

680: A Lot of Holes in That Cheese

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

Accidental Tech Podcast

It was just unbelievably light and cool and fun.
