Re: macOS storage demands: Capture One Pro and RAW still photography
I have no experience with the Neo but I would be leery of that.
Apple segments their markets and produce machines targeting those segments., My impression is that the Neo is a fine machine for people like students who want something inexpensive for basic work processing, email and browsing.
It could be a great option for a cwetain kind of user, but that user is typically a photographer using Lightroom or similar.

Has anyone tried MacBook Neo? People are saying surprising things about its ability to handle heavy workloads.
Hard not to wonder if a new Mac Neo could occupy the desktop low end at a lower price, especially if people like me can consider giving up Capture One or Creative Cloud for lighter software.
