New MacBook Air? Should I?

[skaertus]

I am thinking of buying a new MacBook Air to add up to my ever-growing list of computers. It is not going to be my main computer by any means, but my only Mac laptop.

I currently have a Dell XPS desktop which is my main computer overall; an M4 Mac mini, which is my Mac; an Asus Zenbook S14, which is my main laptop; a Lenovo Slim 7x, which is my Windows ARM laptop; an LG Gram 17, which is my big laptop; and some other older laptops.

I was torn between the MacBook Neo and the MacBook Air, but I suppose the MacBook Air is the better choice. I am thinking of going with the 13-inch M5 base version, with 16 GB and 512 GB, which should be enough for general use (MS Office, web browsing, etc.).

I am torn between sky blue and midnight.

Any thoughts? Should I proceed? With which one?

You should buy both blue and midnight. And for heavier jobs when the two Neo’s just won’t do, you need the Air too.

In addition, you will want to add an iPad Pro so you have the benefit of the touch screen when you need it.

Oh, my! I know I have become the freak computer buyer. Don't get me started with tablets...

Sure, why not? After all, it's YOUR disposable income. And go with the sky blue. Better to ward off those pesky, oily fingerprints!
