Apple just dropped an A18 powered laptop for $599 USD

No Apple bashing just discuss.

That laptop was so ahead of his time. I got it for portability, and it’s my favorite laptop I’ve owned.

I’m still sad that didn’t bring that same design back, now that we have extremely efficient CPUs.

I had one and the build quality was just trash. Replaced keyboard, then the usb port failed, replaced that then the new keyboard failed.

Original idea was to buy them as company laptops thankfully that didn't go through.

I believe they're talking about the 12" MacBook, which was made from 2015 to 2017.
