I took a look at the new MacBook Air at a store yesterday, and I have to say damn its nice. However, it is expensive, so like the previous generation, give it a couple of update cycles, and it will be down to the $999 starting price that the M1 MBA is currently at. Besides the price I think that having both of the USB-C ports are on the same side is unpractical, I was hoping for them to be on opposite sides.
Except, that's just what Apple does sometimes.
