What's the price of the M1 Air?
20k?
I have never owned anything from Apple but I have to say that I am kinda interested in the MacBook with the M1 chip.

I've spent like an hour with mine now. Updating and installing stuff.
All I can say is that I've never felt a more responsive computer in my life.
Software launches at the pace like apps on an iPhone.

No they're not available here. And it'll probably be more than that

8GB will do just fine then.

Most of the reviews I've seen say 8GB is more than enough due to it having 'unified memory' or whatever. I personally have the 8GB, 8CPU/7GPU model and it is way, way snappier than any other Mac I have ever owned.Thanks, but... no way
The main selling point for me was the fact that it does not get warm, no matter what you do. I'd do simple things like watch Netflix on my old Air and feel discomfort on my lap due to the computer heating up - not so with this model. Highly recommended.

They’re a division of Shopandship. I’ve never bought any Apple products from them but I have bought other brands and their service has been good. They respond quickly and accepted a return with no issues. And they’re an Apple Authorised Reseller. So I don’t think you need to worry about using them.
iStore and Digicape will be a similar price as everything comes through Core.
