Didn't we agree that calling your product "new" is poor planning? Are they going to silently rename it in 6 months? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPad_(3rd_generation) Or will they keep doing this with "neu", "nouveau", "nuevo" etc? | ||||||||

I honestly don't think "neo" invokes thoughts of "new" to most people (despite the Greek etymology, of which I'm well aware). It's a subtle distinction, but I think the general connotation is more like "hyper-modern" or "reinvention/reinterpretation." People won't see "MacBook Neo" and think "oh there's just a new MacBook." | ||||||||

It's a product category name at least, not a release name, so the next release can be Neo 2 | ||||||||

> Are they going to silently rename it in 6 months? Probably when they update it, if they decide to keep the product line going. | ||||||||
