Running a full node on a macbook? I'm thinking about running a bitcoind full node to help out the bitcoin network.

Would it be feasible to run a full node through one of the new macbooks?

(12", 250GB HD, 8GB RAM, 1.1 GHz Intel Core M processor)

thanks!
It's certainly possible. I used to run a full bitcoind node on a 5 year old MacBook Air. I stopped (and moved it to a larger machine) because the size of the blockchain database was becoming annoying - it's currently 52 GB and always gets bigger. If you can spare the space, there's no problem with actually doing it.
