I'm surprised its so hard to find cheap low powered laptops with big screens and a good keyboard. Usually big screens means GPU and high end components. Esp in this era of cloud computing I only need a browser and a terminal on a 16+ in screen. I'd love a MacBook air with a big screen, why is it so hard?

At this point it wouldn’t surprise me if the screen is one of the most expensive parts of a laptop. So I’m not sure there’s much of a market for people who want a really big screen but cheap everything else.

In the Windows world, "big" screen meant 15.6" 1366x768 panels, which where always accompanied by equally sad processor and RAM specs.

Yeah I'd like this too. MBA M1 with the non-notch MBP 16" screen and speakers would be great.
