In this situation, it would be the Air for me, hands down. Not even a question.

They're already out, and have been for a while (since March or so, I believe). The searching thing is weird, so it almost works better to just manually cull through all the refurb Airs. But I've seen them for well over a month now (minis and MacBook Pro too).

Here you go...hope it's still there. A silver M1 MacBook Air for $849 (the 8 core/7-core graphics) with 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD). There are others available, but this is the base, cheapest one...$150 off the regular $999 price.
