@cstross @graydon exactly; you'd walk on the one they make money on for a travel laptop. Which is exactly what the average existing customer is going to do. "Oh, it's half the price and good enough? OK!" It's cannibalizing their own sales. And there won't be the new customers they expect, because $599 plus "replace everything you already own and learn a new OS" is an instant loser. Wouldn't surprise me if the Neo is a loss leader either; Apple tried that with the dead AR/VR thing.
