Going to bed every night, tossing and turning, questioning, regretting, waking up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat wondering if you made the right decision, will saving a couple bucks feel as good a month or two from now, will your MBA accommodate all your browser tabs, a tough spot to be in no doubt about it... LDSanders, you mentioned receiving educational pricing. Assuming you're enrolled in an accredited institution of higher learning, if you're one of those liberal arts students, you made the right choice, save your money (you're gonna need it after graduation). On the other hand, if you're studying any number of STEM disciplines, it's time to ignore the naysayers and bet on yourself!!! Go big, ramp up, max out, no regrets, no fears, reach for the stars, commit like your life depends on it, and live your life like there's no tomorrow!!! Thin and light passively-cooled computers are for people with thin and light bank accounts. You're in school to get a high-tech salary, so trade in that dainty MBA and get yourself a 16" MacBook Pro M1 Max and you'll never regret it and you'll sleep like a baby!!! /s
