    Yeah me too; I bought it to replace a 2013 MBP. Its so light, the battery life is rediculous, and its far gruntier than I need for the work I do which is mostly in a shell / nvim etc anyway.

        Ah well that was just me replacing my personal laptop, so the 10 year old machine had been outperforming my 3 different work laptops (typically Lenovo, running Windows, refreshed every couple of years) all the way up until I got the Air.

      I have 15" M2 Air, and honestly, this laptop will last me for longer than Apple will want it to. An absolutely astonishing bit of engineering.

        Heh, well yes i’m sure they would have rather I didn’t hang on to my last one for 10 years; in fact its still going too - like i’d done with the last two macbooks i’d owned it went as a hand me down to my father who just uses it for email & web browsing. I’m hoping the Air will be around a similar amount of time - it will probably come down to battery & flash degradation over time I suspect.
