You can usually make those displays go 180 degrees, you know, so life flat, you know, parallel with the keyboard or even with the keyboard.

Um,

Whereas most Apple laptops can only go, I don't know, like 120 degrees or something like that.

And it doesn't really bother me near as much anymore.

It does sometimes, but gosh, it drove me absolutely batty when I first went to the Mac.

So Nirav was complaining about that.

Yep, absolutely.

Continuing with the observations from the video, the bottom cover of the Neo is not CNC milled like it is in a MacBook Air and a MacBook Pro, at least according to Nirav.

It is stamped instead with a little machining added afterwards, making it more flexible and less able to form an even seal with the rest of the case.

And then, uh, additionally the framework laptop 12 logic board is like four times the size of the one on the MacBook Neo because it's effectively a phone's logic board.

It's really astonishing to see.

All right, let's talk about the MacBook Neo versus Chromebooks.

This cracked me up, so let me read both of these bits of feedback back-to-back, if you'll permit me.

In the high school I teach at, every student has a Chromebook over 1,901 building.

When one quits working or is forgotten at home, the student goes to the library and checks out another.

It takes maybe two minutes.

Students can't go one period without one because all curriculum is digital.

We have a couple of students who are trained to replace broken screens by salvaging parts.

The IT department is never involved at all with Chromebooks except for student password resets.
