Since Apple doesn't have a stock/retail configuration with 16GB for the MBA (it is all considered BTO even if some Apple Stores do stock additional configurations) we won't get great deals on them because retailers like BestBuy, Amazon and Costco can't even carry them. Best bet is B&H, Adorama who can order BTO and does slightly discount, or Refurb Apple Store.

Yes.

I have the base Mac mini m1 with 8gb. I run dozens of browser tabs on it without it breaking a sweat. It can generate AI images locally (about 2 minutes per 512x512 image). I was very skeptical of Apple's move away from Intel but they hit it out of the park with these.

Would have to see if this can handle Lightroom tasks. I have a 2019 16 inch MacBook Pro but these m2 processors are fantastic. Debating this deal vs the Apple deal at 1000 with 150 gift card

I have a 2020 Macbook Air with M1 and use it as a glorified Chromebook. It handles most of my browsing, though, I've been seeing my RAM usage is around 7/8GB of RAM. For future proofing, I think I'd pay extra for the 16GB deals if I can find them.
