you know, spare lids to the Neos and take a broken screen and put it in the recycle thing and put the new one on.
So, you know, I agree with Henry that it's still not quite the same, but I do think the Neo is actually making some progress in the direction of the Chromebook advantages here.
That's straight from Apple.
They're making a straight-up claim for what we're calling the medium core, just because it makes more sense.
They're saying it's actually more efficient than the old efficiency core, which kind of leans towards maybe the M6 will use these cores instead of the old efficiency cores, but we'll see.
It remains to be seen if they're even going to use the Chipotle architecture for the plain, no-suffix M6 architecture.
But that's a bold claim.
Don't worry about the medium cores not being as efficient as the efficiency cores.
They're actually more efficient, claims Apple.
Yeah, usually Apple doesn't talk about these things, like what standards does it use or whatever.
PCIe 5, I think, is a standard from 2019 or something, so there are later standards that are still in progress, but
In case you're wondering if Apple is keeping up with the times, I'm not sure.
Maybe the M4 and M3 also use PCIe 5, but you just so rarely hear Apple talk about this.
And unless you find someone who's really dug into the chips, it doesn't come up, especially since it's not like there's any PCI slots or anything.
But yeah, PCIe 5 is in there.
This is from the Mac and I website, by the way.
It's not from the...
