I’ve been wanting a brand new 12 inch macbook since my 2015 became slow and unreliable.

I will lose my marbles if the bodies are plastic. What else could they cut costs on?

$700 MacBooks won't happen because Apple doesn't want to compete at the lower end of the market. This story has been going around since Apple announced the M1 over 3 years ago. Look! Apple is producing its own chips! Cost savings mean we'll get $700 MacBooks! It didn't happen and they are more expensive than ever.
