Mac
I bought my first Mac in March 2020 (it’s the last generation of Intel MacBook Airs – and the first generation post-butterfly keyboard 😛). Mostly I bought in because I wanted in on the Mac app ecosystem, but overall I am much more satisfied with this laptop than I expected. I expect to rock this MBA a long time – maybe not the 11 years that Vivian has been rocking his, but a long time, anyway.
