Apple will surely have a good but legal-illegal walkaround on this.

Uhm i don’t understand, the MacBook Neo is really more reparable than other MacBooks, so yes the European law helped. Is what the article says
I tend to agree but we have to see how this (repairabiliy, i mean) happens in practice.

What if replacement parts are super expensive? Like a 200$ battery for a $600 laptop?

Is it really repairable then?

Will compatible parts be allowed? There are a bunch of tricks to prevent unofficial parts from working…

At least it can be easily disassembled, compared to other Apple products. Then the third party components will be available for cheaper prices than Apple.
