The 13.3" Clevo is pretty much an unbranded Macbook Air (Google for Schenker S306 or https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/notebooks/lafiteII/)

Thanks for the tip. I had never even heard of the brand before. It does seem to be a great laptop!

And when it breaks, good luck getting support! My time is worth more to go with a big vendor with ubiquitous support.

? All Schenker laptops come with a 24 months warranty. Not as convenient as walking in an Apple Store (I see you are an Apple fan), but I'm fine with paying for shipping to get a replacement if it breaks. Only 1 out of my 5 previous laptops (various brands) has ever needed a warranty repair.
