I waited for such a device for years. I have 3 Macs at the moment. My MacBook Pro (still an M2 Max) from work for work. A Mac Mini M4 Pro from last year and an older M1 MacBook.
I separate my work and private usage because of all the security software my employer forces on the machine. I didn’t want to buy yet another 4000Euro MacBook for my private stuff. So when the new Mini was announced I jumped on it. But my problem was that this meant that my personal computer was no longer portable. I was lucky because I still had the M1 in my house. My wife gave it to me because she stopped using it. If not for the M1 I would definitely have spend money for a MacBook Air or a used older laptop. This Neo would also fit my requirements. But I don’t need it at the moment.
The second reason is of course kids. Yes I thought multiple times if I should get my kids some kind of computer. But the issue is that I don’t want a Chromebook or a windows device under my care. Used would be the way to go here but I love the fact that there is finally a good value entry level machine that also looks fun.
