I'm still using my mid 2013 macbook air and it works perfectly fine for watching videos, internet browsing, etc. I've replaced the battery twice now and upgraded the SSD from 128 gb to 1 tb but otherwise it's been completely maintenance free. It's light and old enough that I just kind of throw it around without worry. If I want/need more power I can just use my desktop. Basically if you want to get a laptop that doesn't suck, get the lightest one you can that doesn't have/use the fan, and only get the bare minimum processing power you can live with so that it never heats up either. Also if it's a mac know how to downgrade the OS and be prepared for it. I'm using the version before big sur or whatever because it turns my laptop in to a fireball while doing literally nothing that this one can't. Don't ever get the base amount of ram though. I never imagined when I bought this that I'd be still using it 8 years later. If it ever bites the dust I'll get another air and hopefully use that for a long rear end time too. hell astro course posted:my macbook gets too hot. i turn it on and if i do anything at all it just gets surface-of-the-sun nuclear hot. If I mention this to anyone they will trip over themselves to tell me "That's Weird" and "Doesn't Happen To Me" "Did you check your task manager?" "Huh that's so weird. I've decided this isn't happening to you because it goes against my core computing fantasies." If it's an older one get rid of big sur and go back to uhh catalina or whatever.
