Nice early BF deal. Was just eyeing this model at BestBuy/Costco last week when they were on sale for $1,049. Decided to wait. Now that I know the price will indeed drop, I might see if there will be a deal on the 16GB/512GB version as we get closer to BF. -Edit- I'm a dumb dumb who can't read. This is the Air. I had been eyeing the Pro for the price mentioned above. The wait continues!

A good price for a great computer. I will say I grabbed an 8GB one like this first and while I was happy with it I was soon hitting swap memory fairly regularly.

As far as I could ever tell that didn't really affect my day to day usage at all but I opted to return it for a 16GB version so that it is more capable longer into the future because otherwise I absolutely love this machine and don't see needing to upgrade for a long time.

My portable drive has 4 times more storage than your phone. What's your point?

Quote from aagg436 :
I'm heavily considering buying a MacBook, the only question I have is whether 8GB RAM is enough, as most laptops nowadays for this price have 16 or even 32GB RAM, I don't know if MacOS is lighter than Windows (which I use right now)
you'll be fine with 8. Keep in mind you can customize it..
but for this price I don't think you'll have any complaints. You can make it 16 for like 1200$? Total..

Microsoft sucks at macOS development, which shouldn't surprise anyone. If i have a youtube video playing and I just simply launch Excel there is a slight delay in the youtube video for a brief second. No other program does this, including adobe creative suite apps.
This is on an M1 Pro 16".
This 100%. I suspect they are using archaic thinking and handicapping the program on Macs in an effort to push people to use Windows/PC.

Do we think the price will go lower than this during Black Friday in a month? Or better to bite the bullet and grab one now?

Just a comparison for perspective, that my phone has more storage then this $900 computer. Based on my experience people generally expect their computer to have more storage than their phone. You don't think it's a negative this only has 256gb non expandable?

Whole lotta money for 8gb. I would consider that that absolute bare minimum and if you want your $900 laptop to last more than 5yโ€ฆ.

And your phone probably cost more.

A 256gb iPhone Pro Max is $1199 MSRP for reference.
Yeah but a reputable nvme drive that costs under $60 for 1TB along with being about 2-3x faster than what's in the MacBook.

But the bigger issue is the ram. One can always get cheap external storage.
