Crystal ball: Let’s be clear upfront: there is no Mac Neo desktop. No leak, no supply chain [rumour], no analyst note. What follows is conjecture – but conjecture worth taking seriously, because the pieces are sitting right there on Apple’s workbench.

    If they can make entire laptop and sell it for $500, they can absolutely remove the screen, keyboard, trackpad and battery and sell it for $300.

        That’s not correct.

        1. The purpose of the Neo device is to create an entry level option and get people into Apple’s ecosystem. Same as the iPhone 16e.
        2. They can just…make more chips. They are already working on the Neo successor. It wasn’t just a “one and done” product.
