Not bad, it seems fine for work providing the work is not very intensive it doesn't sound like a bad option at all. Tbh apple is kinda late to enter into the cheep laptop market but it’s not a bad idea, although I don't know if they'll beet chrome-books as far as price though; chromebooks from what I know are way cheeper than this mac, assuming it costs about $400 or there abouts. With cheep pcs? Sure but the chromebooks i'd say still beet it on price by quite a bit.
This kind of reminds me of the original MacBook. Not sure if Apple still makes that particular model or not, but I am interested in following this article. :-)
I'm quite excited for it. I think, of late, Apple has been the victim of its own success. The chips they have created are over powered for 99 % of users. I think this is especially true for us who don't tend to need large file processing. Of course there are exceptions. Think the most power intensive thing I use my Mac for is a windows VM which, as it happens, takes the lion's share of the ram leaving me with just 8 gb for mac os and, it's perfectly fine.
One of these computers paired with something punchy at home, an M4 pro mac mini, for example, and using the excellent incarnation of apple's screen sharing could be a very compelling combo.
If it's a little computer, even better. I'm on my M4 macbook Air as I write this and, feeling around the keyboard, they could certainly shave a lot of body off whilst keeping the same size of keyboard. An ultra ultra portable?
