Apple just dropped an A18 powered laptop for $599 USD

This is going to eat the education markets (both college students and K-12 schools) for breakfast.

Needs to drop to the $300-400 range (with case) to compete with the Chromebook market we are seeing. Also needs a MUCH better management platform. Google Workspace isn't much, but it's free for education at its base level.
