分詞構句

Apple just came flying in out of left field with the people's elbow dropping their giant buying power dong on the market, releasing a $600 MacBook.

Apple 突然殺出個程咬金，用他們龐大的購買力，推出了一臺 600 美元的 MacBook。

情態副詞

That, honestly speaking, makes it hard for me to recommend almost literally anything else to a laptop shopper.

說實話，這讓我幾乎沒辦法推薦其他任何東西給想買筆電的人。

And I want to get way out ahead of this one.

If you're out there bitching about the Neo having a mobile processor in it, y' all spent the last five, five years complaining that Apple doesn't let you run Mac OS on the iPad.

如果你還在抱怨 Neo 裡面有行動處理器，你們過去五年一直在抱怨 Apple 不讓你在 iPad 上跑 Mac OS。

This thing is incredible and it's just one of the value oriented options.

這東西太讚了，而且它只是眾多高 CP 值選項之一。

We got the iPhone 17e, we got a replacement for the Pro display xdr that is $2,000 cheaper and better in a lot of ways.

我們有 iPhone 17e，還有一個 Pro display xdr 的替代品，它便宜了 2000 美元，而且很多方面都更好。

And we got refreshed MacBook Pros, we got a refreshed MacBook Air, we even got this segue to our sponsor Squarespace.

我們有更新的 MacBook Pro，有更新的 MacBook Air，甚至還有這個過場來介紹我們的贊助商 Squarespace。

It's the all in one website building platform.

It can help you create a custom site that stylistically matches your brand and functionally meets all of your needs.

The haters take on the new $600 MacBook Neo is obviously going to be ew, an iPhone chip and a laptop.

那些酸民說新的 600 美元 MacBook Neo 根本是噁心，用 iPhone 的晶片在筆電上。

Yeah, okay, it isn't gonna be an Adobe Premier powerhouse, but Apple isn't selling it as one.

好啦，它確實不是 Adobe Premier 那種強悍的剪輯機，但 Apple 也沒這樣賣它。

Their marketing is focused instead on web browsing, messaging and using the powerful NPU to apply AI effects to your photos.

他們的行銷重點放在網頁瀏覽、訊息收發，以及利用強大的 NPU 來為你的照片套用 AI 特效。

For all of that stuff, this thing is gonna be an absolute monstrously adequate machine.

就這些功能來說，這臺機器絕對是足夠強大的。

Now there is the argument that 256 gigs of storage and 8 gigs of non upgradable even from the factory unified memory basically means this thing is e waste from the moment it rolls off the production line.

不過有人認為，256GB 的儲存空間和 8GB 無法從原廠升級的統一記憶體，基本上意味著這臺機器一出廠就註定是個電子垃圾。

Was it not already e waste for those Starbucks novelists and Facebook Marketplace addicts that instead were buying much more powerful machines before?

對那些以前買了更強大機器，卻只用來寫 Starbucks 小說和逛 Facebook Marketplace 的人來說，難道他們之前買的機器不也是電子垃圾嗎？

Would it not be better if those folks used up less of our precious supply constrained NAND and memory right now?

如果那些人現在少用一點我們寶貴的、受供應限制的 NAND 和記憶體，不是更好嗎？

Besides, I actually don't really think Apple had a choice here due to the way that die is packaged with the DRAM on top in order for them to reuse it, they were kind of stuck with 8 gigs of RAM.

況且，我其實不太認為 Apple 有別的選擇，因為那顆晶片是將 DRAM 堆疊在上面封裝的，為了重複利用，他們只能被卡在 8GB RAM。

Also to Apple's credit, their long term software support means that as long as I'm stuck with 8 gigs of RAM they are too.

另外，Apple 的長期軟體支援也很不錯，這意味著只要我還用著 8GB RAM，他們也會持續支援。

And with very few notable exceptions like the first gen iPad, the Apple Watch Series 0.

除了極少數像第一代 iPad、Apple Watch Series 0 這樣比較特別的例子。

Whatever that was, Apple takes pretty darn good care of their customers, even on products whose active user base number's in the dozens.

不管那是什麼，Apple 都會好好照顧他們的顧客，即使是那些活躍用戶只有幾十人的產品。

看到沒，這就是一種很棒的體驗。

They do such a good job of this that when I recently got phones for a couple of my kids for Christmas, Apple devices were two out of, I think six options that both met my budget and software support requirements.

他們在這方面做得太好了，所以最近聖誕節我幫我幾個小孩買了手機，Apple 裝置佔了其中六個選項的兩個，這兩個同時符合我的預算和軟體支援要求。

And I haven't even talked about how great this device is.

Apple is claiming 11 hours of mixed use and up to 16 hours of battery life, not to mention that it runs without a cooling fan.

Apple 聲稱有 11 小時的混合使用時間，以及長達 16 小時的電池續航力，更別提它還沒有風扇就能運作。

And because it uses their lower powered A Series silicon, it probably straight up doesn't even need a fan in order to maintain full performance.

而且因為它採用了他們功耗較低的 A 系列晶片，所以它大概根本就不需要風扇就能維持完整效能。

It also doesn't need a huge battery which carries multiple benefits.

它也不需要一個超大電池，這帶來了許多好處。

The 36 watt hour battery inside the MacBook Neo keeps it easily portable at a trim 1.23 kilos, and

MacBook Neo 內建的 36 瓦時電池讓它輕鬆便攜，重量僅 1.23 公斤，而且

it only needs a 20 watt charger which thankfully is included in the box.

它只需要一個 20 瓦的充電器，幸好這個充電器有包含在盒裝裡。

All of that means that you could pick up a reasonably priced battery bank like this really cool one that promises like a modular interface on the top and the ability to replace the cells once they wear out, or maybe even support future cool battery chemistries.

這一切都意味著你可以買一個價格合理的行動電源，像是這個很酷的，它承諾頂部有模組化介面，並且電池老化後可以更換電池芯，甚至支援未來的酷炫電池化學技術。

And you could more than double your Neo's time away from the wall just carrying a tiny thing like this.

你只需要帶著像這樣的小東西，就能讓你的 Neo 離開插座的時間增加一倍以上。

Now you must be thinking at this point, what's the downside?

現在你一定在想，那缺點是什麼？

Surely it's made of unapologetic plastic or something, right?

It's got an aluminum chassis, a liquid retina display with anti glare that tops out at a very solid 500 nits.

它有鋁合金機身，還有一個防眩光的 Liquid Retina 顯示器，亮度最高可達 500 尼特。

That's perfectly acceptable for an office or school environment or even outdoors if you could stay out of direct sunlight.

這對於辦公室或學校環境來說都很不錯，即使在戶外，只要避開陽光直射也 OK。

Apple also went to great lengths to make it clear that the keyboard is their familiar beloved magic keyboard.

Apple 也特別強調，這鍵盤是大家熟悉的 Magic Keyboard。

And even the trackpad is okay, it's smaller than other MacBooks, but

觸控板也很不錯，雖然比其他 MacBook 小，但

it's still multi touch and a very decent size.

它仍然支援多點觸控，尺寸也很適中。

This thing even packs a 1080p webcam, spatial audio support on its dual speakers, and

這臺甚至還配備了 1080p 網路攝影機、雙喇叭支援空間音訊，以及

a second noise canceling mic for video calls.

第二個用於視訊通話的降噪麥克風。

then we turn it on its side and yeah, the connectivity is a bit of a downer.

然後我們把它側放，嗯，連線能力有點讓人失望。

Thankfully we get a 3.5 millimeter jack, but

if you want to plug in a USB, a device or even an external display, you're going to be resorting to a dongle.

如果你想接 USB 裝置，或是外接顯示器，你得用轉接器。

I'm getting flashbacks to the 12 inch MacBook from 2015.

我好像又回到 2015 年的 12 吋 MacBook 了。

However, it is worth noting that sorry to break this to you, 2015 was over 10 years ago and nowadays everything from external drives to gaming headsets to office monitors can be found with a USB C connection.

不過，值得一提的是，抱歉要跟你說，2015 年已經是十幾年前的事了，現在從外接硬碟、電競耳機到辦公室螢幕，很多東西都有 USB-C 連接埠了。

While Touch ID is featured very prominently in the marketing for the device, it's actually not supported on the base configuration.

雖然 Touch ID 在這款裝置的行銷上非常突出，但入門款配置其實不支援。

It only comes on the 512 gig model that costs $100 extra.

它只在要加價 100 美元的 512GB 機型上才配備。

Also, the keyboard lacks a backlight, which is some pretty strong 2010 vibes on what is otherwise such a modern looking machine.

另外，鍵盤沒有背光，這讓這臺看起來很現代的機器，有種很強烈的 2010 年風格。

With that said, this thing can be had for as little as $500 with an education discount.

說到這個，教育折扣價最低只要 500 美元就能入手。

And if this Redditor's comment is anything to go by, Apple's strong buyback program, not to mention their support services, are gonna have even public school districts looking very closely at these machines compared to Chromebooks.

如果這位 Reddit 使用者的評論有什麼參考價值的話，Apple 大力的股票回購計畫，還有他們的支援服務，都會讓公立學校在比較這些機器和 Chromebook 時，非常仔細地考慮。

Because you've got a lot more than the one laptop today.

因為你今天擁有的不只是一臺筆記型電腦。

Let's dive into the other new MacBooks and the M Silicon chips that are at their hearts now.

我們來深入看看其他新款 MacBook 和 M Silicon 晶片，它們現在是這些電腦的核心。

It's no secret that Mac OS and I have had our differences of opinion, but

Mac OS 和我之間意見不合不是什麼祕密，但是

I'm a huge fan of what Apple has done with Apple Silicon and the M5 Pro and the M5 Max mean that that ain't going to be changing anytime soon.

我非常欣賞 Apple 在 Apple Silicon 上的表現，而 M5 Pro 和 M5 Max 意味著這種情況短期內不會改變。

I talked a fair bit in our launch coverage of Intel's Panther Lake CPUs about the importance of multi die chip designs going forward.

在我對 Intel Panther Lake CPU 的發表報導中，我曾多次強調多晶片設計未來的重要性。

This approach can help with everything from enabling advanced features with third party IP to reducing cost, to creating a richer, more modular product stack that better serves your customers.

這個方法能幫助你實現許多功能，從啟用第三方 IP 的進階功能，到降低成本，再到打造更豐富、更模組化的產品堆疊，以更好地服務你的客戶。

And Apple's version of this, called their Fusion Architecture, looks set to deliver very nicely on all of those benefits.

而 Apple 將這種架構稱為 Fusion Architecture，看起來能很好地實現所有這些優勢。

The Pro and the Max configurations both come with a new neural processor and a nice little upgrade to peak unified memory, throughput and GPU performance, and

Pro 和 Max 配置都配備了新的神經處理器，以及統一記憶體、輸送量和 GPU 效能的小幅升級，

而且兩者現在都擁有 18 個 CPU 核心。

That is a 4 and 2 core improvement over last gen, respectively.

這分別比上一代多了 4 個和 2 個核心。

This, combined with Apple's claims that these are the fastest cores in the world, should mean that Apple's only obstacle to selling these things by the truckload is how good their previous generation M series silicon already was.

這項優勢，加上 Apple 聲稱這些是世界上最快的核心，應該意味著 Apple 唯一需要克服的銷售障礙，就是他們上一代的 M 系列晶片已經做得有多好了。

Seriously, Apple even tacitly acknowledges how few Apple Silicon owners are gonna be upgrading by emphasizing just how much better the battery life will be compared to your Intel CPU MacBook.

說真的，Apple 甚至默認了有多少 Apple Silicon 使用者會升級，方法是強調與 Intel CPU MacBook 相比，電池續航力會有多大的提升。

Though honestly, I think they're being a little unfair to themselves.

不過老實說，我覺得他們有點太謙虛了。

If you're a heavy network user, for instance, like if you edit video over an S, the Wi Fi 7 capability of Apple's new N1 networking chip could be a game changer for you and it comes with Bluetooth 6 as a nice little cherry on top.

如果你是重度網路使用者，例如，如果你透過 S 編輯影片，那麼 Apple 新的 N1 網路晶片支援 Wi-Fi 7 的功能，對你來說可能是一大福音，而且還附帶藍牙 6，真是錦上添花。

And there have been numerous other nice little quality of life improvements as their M Silicon has evolved.

隨著 M 系列晶片的演進，還有許多其他不錯的生活品質上的改進。

Like the first gen was limited to HDMI 2.0, anything newer does HDMI 2.1 and the M4 series was the first to get Thunderbolt 5 with its whomping up to 120 gigabit per second bandwidth boost mode.

第一代 M 系列晶片只支援 HDMI 2.0，但之後的晶片都支援 HDMI 2.1，而 M4 系列更是首款支援 Thunderbolt 5 的晶片，頻寬高達每秒 120 gigabit 的超強提升。

Though it is worth noting that on both M4 and M5 the base non Pro Max Ultra chips are still limited to Thunderbolt 4.

不過值得注意的是，M4 和 M5 的基礎款（非 Pro Max Ultra 版本）仍然只支援 Thunderbolt 4。

Now a major question in all of this is of course pricing, but

在這一切之中，一個主要的問題當然是價格，但

I am pleased to say that even amidst a rampocalypse that is wreaking havoc on affordability for PC users, Apple has managed to mostly hold the line.

我很高興地說，即使在 PC 使用者面臨價格飆漲、難以負擔的困境下，Apple 基本上還是守住了價格。

They did eliminate some entry level models in their MacBook Pro lineup like the 512 gig version of the M5 Pro model.

他們確實取消了一些 MacBook Pro 系列的入門級型號，像是 M5 Pro 型號的 512GB 版本。

But if I'm being honest guys, all told, it could have been a lot worse.

但說實話，總體來說，情況本來可以更糟的。

And if nothing changes in the AI data center boom next year, it might be worse.

如果明年 AI 資料中心熱潮沒有改變，情況可能會更糟。

It's very possible that Apple was only able to do this thanks to their long roadmap and the large scale purchasing commitments that they make.

Apple 能夠這樣做，很可能是因為他們長期的產品規劃和大量的採購承諾。

The last new MacBook is probably the least exciting to me.

最後一款新 MacBook，對我來說可能是最不令人興奮的。

The M5 MacBook Air is $100 more now, eh, but

M5 MacBook Air 現在貴了 100 美元，不過

it comes with double the starting storage, a faster SSD, Wi Fi 7, Bluetooth 6 and of course better performance which again most Apple Silicon users don't need that much.

它提供了兩倍的起始儲存空間、更快的 SSD、Wi-Fi 7、藍牙 6，當然還有更好的效能，但大部分 Apple Silicon 使用者其實不需要這麼多。

So it seems like Apple's most compelling sales pitch for it seems to center around being allowed to upgrade it with more RAM and more storage compared to the neo.

所以看來 Apple 對它的主要銷售亮點，似乎是跟 Neo 相比，可以升級更多 RAM 和儲存空間。

But hey, when you're up against an absolute show stealer like that, I guess it's okay not to look that good.

不過話說回來，當你面對像那樣一個絕對搶盡風頭的產品時，我想表現沒那麼亮眼也還好。

So far I haven't even talked about the new displays yet.

到目前為止，我還沒提到新的顯示器呢。

Apple's non pro displays have always been kinda unexciting, but not this time.

Apple 的非 Pro 顯示器一直都比較無趣，但這次不一樣了。

The new Studio display XDR frankly kicks the absolute crap out of its Pro older brother.

全新的 Studio Display XDR 說實話，完全屌打它的 Pro 老大哥。

Sure they lowered the resolution and it is a little smaller, but

沒錯，他們降低了解析度，而且尺寸也小了一點，但是
