Apple shipped 1.1 million MacBook Neo units in the first quarter of the year, according to IDC, making it one of the strongest Mac debut performances in recent memory (via TechCrunch). The figure is particularly striking given that the laptop was only available for roughly three weeks of the period, having gone on sale in mid-March. Shipments began spiking from early April, suggesting the March tally understates underlying demand.
Can it also be the case that a lot of the buyers are first time Apple users that have never owned a macbook because of the price? So it’s an entirely new segment of users. Most people buying the flagship models are likely repeat customers.
