This post was maybe true 5 years ago, but PC laptops have really started to suck. My macbook air was only $300 and it's way better than my work's $1k+ Dell laptop in terms of performance and battery life.

Yes. Supplier markup is 50% above cost, so set up a price watch and wait for it to go on clearance. You'll get it 50% off.

I got mine new at Best Buy last year when they were clearing out M1 stock.
