Apple debuted its newest — and cheapest — MacBook on Wednesday, finishing a three-day stretch of new hardware announcements that also featured a new iPhone 17e, iPad Air, MacBook Pro and MacBook Air.

The 'MacBook Neo' just showed up in Apple's regulatory documents.

At $599, it is far cheaper in both nominal and ⁠inflation-adjusted terms than Apple's previous non-Pro, non-Air MacBook, which debuted in May 2006 at $1,099 - roughly $1,750 in today’s ​dollars.
