Not usually an Apple guy, but it's hard to overstate how smart it is to focus on affordability right now. I feel like having a ~$500 device in the current market is so important. (Especially if it respects your privacy.)
This is the opposite of "own nothing and be happy" and I suspect these things are gonna sell like hotcakes.
Now we just need to get Linux going on them. 🫡

Macs do not respect your privacy. In comparison to windows it’s better but they still log and send every application you open to Apple.

I know you didn’t mean it like that, but at $599 it is not a “$500 device”. It is a $600 device. Which maybe isn’t much worse but still quite a price difference.
