    I’m pretty close to getting a used m1 air for $500.

    I can probably search a bit and get a slightly better deal.

    The price might be a bit high, but I’m not in the US and we have higher prices here.

      I just got one for around $600 in the US on Swappa. I tried to get one cheaper but couldn’t find it where I lived. Anyway, I’m super happy with it. I made sure it was a low number of battery cycles and it’s in near mint condition.

      The other day, I was coding in VSStudio, debugging JavaScript in Chrome with multiple tabs open, and logging issues I found on a template in Excel. Excel alone makes my work computer freeze and I didn’t notice a single slow down on this thing. It was fantastic.

      I don’t love the way Mac handles open-window management but aside from that I’m very happy.
