My Mac Air is close to giving up the ghost and I'm currently evaluating an M1 (16GB, 1TB) but somehow Apple's recent moves is causing disquiet and am considering returning it (even though it's actually not a bad machine).So I need your advice on a developer's laptop capable of running some flavor of Linux for under 2k. Back in the day the choice would have been simple: ThinkPad but there are all sorts of negative reviews regarding quality of Lenovo and I've been buying Macs for decades so I'm fairly clueless regarding alternatives. Many thanks.
