In fact I think this will not just help lot of blind users come to the Mac 
world but also in general governments providing scholarships to underprivileged 
students would provide this and a lot of data related teams in the corporate 
world are going to love it.
As it is Mac is famous for single core performance and while I would still 
vouch on my MacBook Air M3 16 gb ram for the work I have to do, the general 
public will have absolutely nothing to complain about.
Engineers like me or hard core professional video or sound editors would better 
do with a pro.  DevOps would also be better off with an air or pro but these 
all constitute only about 25% of the users.
For the rest and specially people who want a cheep yet efficient and 
professional durable alternative, Neo is just what one would dream of.
Now it’s high time that accessibility in Mac overall improves because a lot of 
blind people would be able to get one.
Regards.
