Yes, I should specify. Macbook Air are perfectly capable of meeting all basic needs. I teach in music tech, we use software that can be asking (plugin, etc.) but nothing like serious video editing etc., and I've seen that several of these machines quickly struggle with heavy Pro-tool sessions. I'm not an Apple detractor on the hardware side (my m1 max is by far the best laptop I've ever had) but let's be serious, 8gb of ram is 2012 standard, not 2024. Also I'm in Québec, I meant CAD dollars but it's true that I might have exaggere a little bit lol.
If you run one application and no browser you can make 16gb work. Or if you don't mind constant bogging I guess you can use 8gb, but to me at that point you don't really have a usable computer any more.
