I’ve never loved the design of Apple’s leather watch bands. I use a leather “biker cuff” band that I bought off Etsy. It looks and feels way better! All the Apple ones felt… skinny.

If one is Thunderbolt and another is AirPlay, it works. I have a 50" AirPlay-capable TV mounted in my office, and a 27" 4K display on my desk. I use a cable for the 27" and AirPlay for the 50".

Reasons I use my M1 MacBook Air:

1. Real estate. Thanks to AirPlay and the Thunderbolt port, I can have three desktops going at once with all my open windows.
2. Intel binaries still run on it via Rosetta 2.
3. Control – I have more access to the OS, the command line, etc.
4. Virtualization – Apple Silicon is built on ARM, so I can virtualize any ARM-based Linux distribution using VMware Fusion. (I run Fedora in a VM.)
5. Input – despite iPads having the ability to accept keyboard and touchpad input these days, the pointer is still pretty clumsy.

And lots more, but that’s a good start for me.
