ETA: As old as my current Macs are, an Etch-N-Sketch would have seemed like an upgrade, so this should blow my socks off!  |
You'll love it; it's blazing fast. I bought my wife one after I bought my mac mini. She had my old 2016 macbook, but uncharacteristic to apple it died and needed a new motherboard at nearly 500 bucks, so we just bought her a new one. She doesn't keep much on it, mostly using it for email and some orgainizational stuff so for her the base model with 256 GB SSD sufficed. I bought her a 512 gb USB-C thumb drive if she ever needs additional storage.
