| If you're going to do any kind of work on it I'd choose a 5-year old 16 GB memory M1 over a Neo every single time. 8 GB is what's painful. The CPU difference is very small anyway. |

| If you literally just need to borrow one, I'd just buy an Air from Apple directly and then return it within the 14 day window. I'll sometimes do this if I need an extended repair on my personal one, or there's a new mac I want to try. |

I assume there's a ((returns:buys)/payment identity) metric to ban the largest offenders. Also, there should be some universally accepted way to have access to your data and a secure personal computer in the duration your device is getting repaired. |

| If a $300 Mac can do the job, a $600 Mac is overkill. |

| Neo isn't much better than M1. |
