I've been holding on buying a new laptop for a year now. I realized that I never work outside my home office and I have an iPad (with a keyboard) that I use for reading, light browsing and writing stuff. I'm only interested in a laptop as a backup (if I travel or need to work outside of the house). The M1 Mac Mini is plenty for my work (Web and mobile app development).

Mine had one keyboard fix, single key not working, they needed to change the whole top. Then the first complete meltdown, which luckily fell under warranty, friend of mine had the same meltdown earlier -> no warranty -> trash. Then the second meltdown.. So yeah... I am thinking getting a more specced out Ubuntu laptop with lots of ram, then a base Mac like Air or Mini for the rest..
