Going to watch until Parallels is compatible, and hopefully a MacBook Pro 16” is available.Just looking to put some numbers as to what people are going to choose now - not a year out. Feel free to leave comments
Ha, my last upgrade from 12” rMB was to Mini to avoid the touch bar. M1 Air is on the way.Already ordered the new Air.
Apple Silicon looks like the way forward...
...and I get rid of the $%$&%# touch bar.
Funny how you think you're getting over by buying the AIR. It's not like you're getting equally as great of a computer against the M1 MBP with a TouchBar. Wait until your AIR throttles like crazy due to no fan. Enjoy. ?Already ordered the new Air.

Throttle doing what? They said that about the 12” rMB, never experienced it. We all don’t use our computers for the same tasks.Funny how you think you're getting over by buying the AIR.

Not only that, the Apple Silicon runs cooler than Intel to begin with. My iPhone 11 and 2020 iPad Pro don't require fans. A MacBook Air shouldn't, either.Throttle doing what? They said that about the 12” rMB, never experienced it. We all don’t use our computers for the same tasks.
I ordered an 13" Intel Macbook Air two week ago, i7, more memory and 1TB SSD. It should be delivered Nov 16. Slow process times, it shipped from China. I have some software that only runs on Intel and not sure if it would run on the new Macs. Apple said that they would support Intel Mac's for "years to come".Just looking to put some numbers as to what people are going to choose now - not a year out. Feel free to leave comments
"Support" is kind of murky, though. The first intel Macs ran 10.4.4, but by 10.6, PPC Macs were left out in the cold. macOS 11.2 will almost certainly be ASi-only. Which will not be that big a deal. Apple will continue to provide security updates for intel machines running 11.1.6, but any applications that require features that are only 11.2+ will not be intel-compatible.Apple said that they would support Intel Mac's for "years to come".
