Ive got N machines around the house for various tasks but unless Im sitting at my Main Battle Station, my M1 MBA is my goto machine. Competent for more than it should be, disappears in your backpack, great screen if you don't mind the size and battery sipping architecture. This thing was hard to beat at $1K and at $699 JUST GO BUY ONE ALREADY. 8GB memory initially scared me but I have the M1 Mini and the M1 MBA with the same guts and 8GB in M1 land is NOT the same as 8GB on other architectures. I run a full featured trading platform (Trader Workstation+my own code that does the heavy lifting) and right now Im sitting at 6.2 of 8GB "used" and its snappy as could be and apparently ZERO swap is being used too. I run an i9 MBP 16" as my main battle station and I really do think the UI experience on the M1 is snappier. One day I'll have the excuse to upgrade to the latest M* version for that too and Im looking forward to it. With the M1 you will never hear the processor fan kick on because there isn't one because its not even necessary. Im no AAPL fan boi here but this is a no-brainer 200%.
