Hell, I have a G3 powerbook from 2000 that runs 10.5 (we're already up to 10.15, about to launch 16) and other than browser support not working for some sites, the laptop still runs.
Was worried about the 256 but it has not been bad at all. Mostly Apps Installed and keep large amount of data on a thunderbolt external 4TB.
So far working well!
Running Plex for years on a pretty high powered gaming desktop and buffering would take several seconds on some of the higher res videos. Not with Mac (base m4 Mac mini). Near instant.
Power management is way better on Mac. On my MBP I can close the lid and it has power days later. Hit or miss on PC. Open it right up and it's immediately ready to use. On a pc laptop good luck.
Sound on MBP is better than any other laptop. Also the sound from the Mac mini speaker is decent.
Near silent operation on both mini and MBP. PC desktop or laptops typically run fans pretty noisy.
From someone that was a fierce defender of PC for all of my adult life, I converted and I'm really annoyed with having to use a PC for work.
It's been my daily driver ever since, and I agree with your comments on sound, silent operation, and power management. Build quality is also really impressive, I've owned gaming laptops that retail for 30% more that feel flimsy in comparison.
I keep a maxed out T14 dual booting Win10 and Arch for some niche hobbyist stuff, but the Air gets used probably 95% of the time.
No lie, I bought this for my kids, and they endlessly complain that the text looks fuzzy and they think its cheap. They literally default to windows because windows, quite plainly, looks better on any display that is 500 dollars and cheaper. And nobody is going to buy a monitor for 500 bucks unless they use it professionally. I have doctor friends that have gone out and bought this computer and returned it immediately because it looked like trash on the monitors they had, and instead picked up a windows desktop to use at home.
It literally is not that hard to create a version of subpixel rendering that works well on every screen, and detects the resolution of screen you have. Apple literally just transitioned computer architectures. They have the money and time and engineers to make this shit look good even on the shittiest of screens. As it is now, nobody is buying these because you can't even hook it up to a display and make it look good, unless you install third party software, which is besides the point.

16gb on the old intel chipset? Garbage.
16gb on the apple silicon? Perfectly fine for 90% of uses.
Anyone who says otherwise has very specific uses that require memory and guess what? You're free to upgrade to what you need.
