I've owned 4 MacBooks. A white plastic one, a 13" MBP, a 15" MBP, and now a 15" M2 Air.

I've had the Air for a year and I still can't wrap my head around how it's technically in a class below the fully specced 15" 2015 MBP, but outperforms it in literally every way. Don't get me wrong, I understand that, even without Apple Silicon, computer tech jumped on in leaps and bounds in the 8 years between my last two, but the performance difference is astonishing.

Sure, it's a lot of money for an 'entry level' laptop, but this fucker is going to last me ten years or more. When Apple no doubt drop OS support for it in a few years, Asahi Linux will almost certainly be rock solid enough to fully replace macOS.
