Why did you choose that over the MacBook Air?

My impression is that the air can’t “gun it” for as long because of heat. Sometimes I run intensive stuff and I’d prefer the machine to turn the fans on rather than throttle the processor.

With that said, the air is nice. It’s just not worth it to save 160 grams for my use case.
