An excerpt from the 2024 book Play Nice: The Rise, Fall, and Future of Blizzard Entertainment, telling the story of how author Andy Weir was fired from Blizzard

This past weekend, the new movie Project Hail Mary was a smash hit, bringing in nearly $141 million at the box office.

I'm excited for the MacBook Neo from the perspective of it being a reasonably priced Safari/WebKit testing machine.

I imagine they'll be cheap second-hand as well due to the education market.

The lower-end specs won't be an issue for testing either. Maybe a benefit, even.
