To be fair I would say the vast majority of Mac users are using their machines purely for browsing, note taking, etc regardless of what model they're on. Most buy a Mac so they can prop open the lid and show off the Apple logo to everyone else. It's a status symbol, it's a flag of conformity.

So the Neo fills that niche without spending an arm and a leg to do so AND you can actually easily repair some things on it. As a netbook it's perfect.
