i recently traded in my dell xps with ubuntu for a macbook air, because:

- the arrow key / page up and down placement on the keyboard led me to jump all over the page when typing

- the camera was placed at the bottom of the screen, which looks super unflattering (an issue of importance in an all video conferencing world)

- unexpected ubuntu on the hardware quirks that i had to deal with before getting to the coding that i wanted to do

- M1 is _fast_. it makes everything feel like lightning.
