This. I get the M1 must be very good but what I really want is something I doubt I'm going to get: native Office support in Linux. I use Office rarely but on those rare occasions it sucks to use Office 365.

Depending on your needs I find older Office versions play pretty well in Wine. 2007 is insanely easy to install and 2010 isn't too bad with PlayOnLinux or Crossover. Word, Excel and PP work very well although as you get outside those it's less good.

Yeah, Office 365 web version burned me hard too many times while collaborating. I had to switch to desktop only (which is still 365).

WSL gives you all the *nix bits of Ubuntu and native MS Office support.

But the kernel is wrong. I kind of buy this philosophically until I tried it. It just feels like you put the the wrong person in control, while all the time you really want to deal with another.
