Macbook Air M4s Are on Sale
I bought a 15” Apple Macbook Air M4 a few months ago and I love it. Of course, I loved my previous computer (an M1 Macbook Air) too, but bumping up the screen size and quality has been a game-changer for me. More speed and memory is great too for running virtual machines and waaayyy too many tabs in Chrome. And it’s still super portable.
Just the other day I urged a friend (hi, Alex!) to upgrade from an older Intel Air, so when I saw that Amazon was selling M4 Airs for a discount, I figured I’d share the good word with you folks as well:
- Apple 2025 MacBook Air 15-inch Laptop, M4 chip, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD Storage. $1,199.00 (-14% off). This is the one that I have, in sky blue, which really isn’t blue so much as a vibrant, slightly shimmering gray.
- Apple 2025 MacBook Air 13-inch Laptop, M4 chip, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD Storage. $799.00 (-20% off). This is the 13-inch base model and $800 is an absurdly low price for so much computer, especially in the age of the mad king’s tariff scheme.
If you click through to either of those, there are more models with differing amounts of memory, hard drive, etc. Oh and all of them come with a 12-megapixel camera so you’ll look sharper on the screens of others during Zooms or FT calls, for better or worse. (via daring fireball)

This is the name that'll be displayed next to comments you make on kottke.org; your email will not be displayed publicly. I'd encourage you to use your real name (or at least your first name and last initial) but you can also pick something that you go by when you participate in communities online. Choose something durable and reasonably unique (not "Me" or "anon"). Please don't change this often. No impersonation.
Note: I'm letting folks change their display names because the membership service that kottke.org uses collects full names and I thought some people might not want their names displayed publicly here. If it gets abused, I might disable this feature.
If you feel like this comment goes against the grain of the community guidelines or is otherwise inappropriate, please let me know and I will take a look at it.
