For now, the Neo still starts at $599 for the 256/8GB configuration, while the 512/8GB variant is $699 - still $100 less than the Mac Mini.

The next era of Apple Silicon is expected to power a massive MacBook Pro redesign, potentially introducing OLED d

The shortage situation is noteworthy because it’s rare when shopping for Apple products; generally, the company’s control of its supply chain means that if it wants to sell you something, it can do so on whatever terms it chooses. That’s mostly still true. So far, the chaos affecting Apple’s headless desktops is mostly not touching the rest of the lineup.
