This week, Cherlynn chats with Devindra about his review of the 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Air M3. They&#8217;re faster, as we expected, but they&#8217;re also not a huge leap over the M2 MacBook Air, which now starts at $999. (And we&#8217;re sure you&#8217;ll find some excellent refurbished and used deals soon.) No matter which one you pick, though, you&#8217;re getting one of the most stunning ultraportable notebooks around. In other news, we discuss Apple&#8217;s nearly $2 billion fine from the EU, Microsoft&#8217;s upcoming Surface AI event and the death of Android apps on Windows 11.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>Listen below or subscribe on your podcast app of choice.
