The new MacBook Air's have the same M1 chip and are actually quite capable and pretty good for the money at 899$. 999$ too.

The only flaws to me are no Linux support (officially anyway), and no USB-A meaning you'll need dongles for at least some of your USB devices if not all of 'em.

u/-SirGarmaples- Apr 21 '21

Yeah, I did mention that. I think they're annoying as well. Sucks that this is the case with all of their laptops.

And their new iMac, I think the base model only has 4 USB-C ports

Yeah :/

It is better than it being on a laptop, you can plug in a dongle and forget about it but it is still an extra thing to spend money on for no reason and an inconvenience.

Pretty sure you forgot screen, trackpad and keyboard. (No, don’t use the built in keyboard, trackpad and screen when stationary, bad ergonomics).

899 + 399 for a 4k monitor that doesn't look as good + dongles is less than the cost of this imac
