“You can get a better deal than the MacBook Neo if you buy used or refurbished.”
Isn’t that the case for literally every Apple laptop ever made?
You can always get a better deal buying used or refurbished. That’s not a revelatory point.
@mike When non-techy people make comments like this, I tend to respond with "you get what you pay for".
Sure, the cost per unit of various spec's might be less.
But just like buying a brand new 2024 Honda Accord instead of the just-released 2026 Honda Civic, you're buying a device that will be reach a point where it isn't supported by the manufacturer sooner. Not to mention reach a point where it doesn't look like a new model sooner, for those who care.
Then again, if it's for a kid who isn't the most careful with things, when there's an option for a refurbished Neo, I might lean that way…
