Apple's most affordable MacBook ever appears to be a resounding hit with customers, based on comments shared by CEO Tim Cook this week. On an earnings call on Thursday, Cook said that customer response to the MacBook Neo has been "off the charts" since the laptop was unveiled in March. "We could not be happier with how things are going at the moment," he said.
The average person frankly doesn’t really care as much as you think probably. Anecdotal but people I spoke to who also got it mainly got it for the price. They’d still prefer Windows since it’s what they’re used to but the lower price makes trying something new a lot more palatable.
IMO the average person (and multiple people I know) no longer like using their computers since W11 was forced down. They’ve heard good things about Apple and are ready for a change.
Most of the stuff “regular people” do on computers these days is either web-based or cross-platform, too. A lot of them are getting the Neo because it’s better than practically every other $600 new laptop in terms of build quality.
The average person is furious the computer just restarts by itself because of an update. You don’t have relatives that use Windows? They have asked me to disable updates because of this
