To work around the rounded upper corner display that don't work well with the Stickies app, the preference settings for window gap margins is needed.

Four sharp corners for the actual display and no notch are winning moves.

8gb of ram far too little. My 5-year-old old laptop that I still use came with 16gb, so you're buying obsolete tech already.

I think it replaces the Mac Mini and competes with the Chromebook. $499 for students.

I just ordered a base model Mac Mini a few days ago. The Mac Mini and the MacBook Neo serves different niches. They cost the same for students, teachers, and professors. The MacBook Neo is more portable, but the Mac Mini offers more processing cores and more RAM (16GB instead of 8GB), and it has an M4 processor instead of an A18.
