<p>The 2018 retina MacBook Air had a fan. A loud fan. It’s so loud just transferring data over Thunderbolt. God. What a piece of shit computer that we all desperately wanted to be good.</p>

<p>See you in hell, 2018 Intel MacBook Air! Welcome to heaven, 2024 M3 MacBook Air!</p><p>(I’m setting up the laptop I got for my mom for a Xmas and paying penance for the laptop I bought her for Xmas 2018)</p>
