Using a 96-watt adapter can double your MacBook's charging speed compared to the standard 20-watt charger.

If you're serious about productivity, ditch the included charger for a faster option.

It looks like an 8-inch laptop. I guess this is the MacBook Neo, sort of designed to compete with the Chromebook. It comes in at $599. Well, not even just the Chromebook, just all PCs. Yeah, but, I mean, you're not going to get this for, like, if you're in a professional workplace, go to a desktop with multiple monitors, plug in, you're doing, like, advanced work. This is for students. This is for the low end. Or just a personal computer. I think it's designed for people that have an iPhone but don't have a Mac because of cost. And now they can have an integrated suite. Yeah, I mean, it's a crazy product. I love the …” View more

But when I saw the $10.99 price, I saw that discussion in the conference room saying, well, you know what, our quote-unquote entry-level MacBook isn't going to be $599 or $699.
