Whoa, an entire month backlog. That's pretty unheard-of, huh? But a good sign...they must be selling the hound out of these things.

That's going to be an awesome machine, with the 16GB RAM, along with the bumped graphics and storage. It'll handle anything she'll ever throw at it, I'm sure.

I'm trying to get my Mom to consider selling both her current MacBook Air and iMac (which she barely uses anymore...probably a solid 5-to-1 on the Air vs. iMac usage at this point), and get a new M1-based Air (16/256). Both her existing Macs are ~2013, so a solid 7-8 years old.

There's no reason for her to have/deal with two Macs. There never was, but it just turned out that way somehow. But a new M1 would run rings about both her current ones, for anything she'd ever think about doing.
