Buying a laptop is an investment, and with tech inflation where it’s at, it can be a pretty pricey one. If you’re in the market for an upgrade, buying new isn’t your only option. You can score high-quality refurbished gear that is far more budget-friendly than buying new ones.

Apple is known for its top-notch devices, from the iPhone to the iPad, and now you can grab the cult-classic MacBook Air at a lower price. This refurbished Apple laptop is on sale for only $355, but this special discount ends on February 23 at 11:59 p.m. PST.

Apple’s rumored 15.5-inch MacBook Air could use the 5nm M2 chip. The same SoC powers the 2022 MacBook Air and the new Mac mini.

The Cupertino company has never released a MacBook Air with a display size larger than 13.6 inches.

A super-size MacBook Air is supposedly right around the corner. An analyst who’s built a solid reputation for accurately predicting Apple products says the next macOS notebook will be out in six weeks or so.

This will be the first time the thin and light line of notebooks has expanded past the current 13.6-inch screen.

Apple’s M2 MacBook Air with 512GB storage is down to $1,349 on Amazon after a $150 discount. If you have been eyeing the slimmest MacBook in Apple’s lineup, this is a deal you should not miss.

With 512GB storage, the M2 MacBook Air will easily last you for the next few years.

Some budget computer setups look the part — cheap, utilitarian, uninspired, incomplete — and others don’t. Today’s featured setup falls in the latter category. You look at the well-equipped workstation and the word “cheap” doesn’t occur to you.

Against a DIY desk and pegboard, the setup features an M1 MacBook Air, dual Dell displays, some nice AV gear and plenty of nice touches.

A 15.5-inch MacBook Air is on Apple’s agenda for the first half of 2023, according to a reliable source.

This would be the first time the traditionally thin and light line of notebooks has expanded past the current 13.3-inch screen.

Apple’s M2-powered 2022 MacBook Air is down to its lowest-ever price of $999. That’s a massive discount of $200 from its retail price.

If you place your order today, you can get the MacBook Air before Christmas.

Some setups are no-nonsense, just the facts, ma’am — strictly utilitarian. Others are fanciful and full of toys. Today’s featured setup leans toward the latter, with its burgeoning population of Transformer figures crowding the shelf above the display and even related wall art.

And there’s plenty of gaming going on there, too, via a custom gaming PC and Nintendo Switch OLED in addition to an M1 MacBook Air and 12.9-inch iPad Pro.

Oh, and it has one of the coolest speaker systems ever made, too.

If you’ve got a tiny desk for a workspace, you’ve got to make the most of it. Today’s featured computer setup centers on an M1 MacBook Air driving a small 4K external display, clearly going away from the trend toward big-screen-TV-sized displays for a reason — namely, vanishingly small desk space.

A small external display is one way to save room. But the user has some other tricks up his sleeve, as well. Let’s take a look.

Looking to buy a new MacBook Air ahead of Black Friday? Apple’s 2020 M1 MacBook Air is down to $799.99 on Amazon after a $199.01 discount.

This deal makes the M1 Air much more affordable and better justifies its dated design.
