The ad on TV here tells me it will cost 599 quid and comes in multiple colours. No hints as to what it will actually do.
Personally, I advocate people to convert Windows 10 cast offs away from e-waste, rather than buying tomorrows e-waste.
The number of ex Win 10 machines will vastly outnumber however many of these things that budget Apples will ever sell.
- dghlsakjg 7mo agoIt’s a general purpose computer that runs MacOS, just like every other Mac from the past few decades. If you want an ad to tell you what that means, well... There is great value to be had in reusing old hardware selling for a fraction of new pricing. There is great value to be had in an affordable machine with great battery life, light weight durable design, and a user friendly interface that will work and be supported for the better part of a decade. Knowing that some customers will be better served by the former or the latter is pretty valuable. As an aside, if you are concerned about e waste, take a look at the teardown videos of this machine. This is being touted by many as the most repairable Mac in decades (admittedly, a low bar). Just about every component can be replaced in a few minutes with nothing more than a screwdriver
