I’ll start: Two years ago, I bought the legendary M1 MacBook Air (actually I just checked my receipt, and it will be exactly two years tomorrow, huh!). I’m typing from it right now.

It has truly been amazing since day 1. To me, this computer is an embodiment of the Apple Silicon transition, as it combines an Intel-era body with the new-era M1 chip. Mostly thanks to the overkill heat dissipation and battery, the result is a ridiculously awesome laptop.

I've done a fair share of graphic design, programming, now almost 4 semesters of university studies, and even quite a bit of gaming on this computer. It has taken everything I've thrown at it so far, and I'm sure there's many more years of happy use to come. I wouldn't change it for anything.

Although I'll admit, I'm quite jealous of the M2 kids and their MagSafe port. Two Thunderbolt ports is sometimes just not enough :,)
