I've got a 12 year old Mac book air that just refuses to die or grow obsolete. I've never been rich or wanted to flex - it was the only thing with the weight, size, and specs from the time and it remains my favourite laptop ever. I hate to think of what I'll have to get next time.

Thats the only good thing about Apple products, they never change.

So when you finally do want to upgrade, there will be a nice new shiny version of the same macbook air ready for you to buy.

unfortunately I'll want to wait until asahi is sufficiently supported before considering it. I gave up on os x when they made me reboot to disable nanny mode.
