“MacBook Neo” appears to be the name of Apple’s long-rumored low-cost MacBook, based on a regulatory posting on Apple’s website, MacRumors reports. The gaffe was quickly removed from Apple’s site (pour one for the poor soul who posted it). Previous rumors did not include a name for the affordable MacBook – I thought Apple would just revive the clean and simple “MacBook” branding. The name MacBook Neo seems to be something we see from ASUS or Acer, it tries a little hard to seem cool.

To recap, Apple is expected to unveil the first affordable MacBook laptop tomorrow (and personally, I think it has a good shot at skin disgruntled Windows users). It is said to be powered by one of the company’s A-series mobile chips, rather than the M-series hardware in its laptops and desktops until now. Apple is reportedly not skimping on the case – it’s expected to be all metal, except for more colors than the company’s current lineup. In many ways, the MacBook Neo is like a replacement for Apple’s beautiful and colorful iBook laptops, except for much less money than the machines, which do not have a handle for touring.

Apple kicked off the week of spring announcements with iPhone 17e and iPad Air M4 yesterday, both of which are relatively modest upgrades. (However, it would be nice to have MagSafe on the iPhone 17e.) This morning, Apple revealed the MacBook Air M5 and MacBook Pro M5 Pro/Max systemsboth of which are slightly more expensive than previous models. We also got a new addition to Apple’s monitor lineup with 5K MiniLED Studio Display XDR. Along with the MacBook Neo, we may also see the upgraded Mac Studio desktop announced tomorrow.
