Curiously 2020’s MacBook Air, which debuted Apple Silicon with the M1 chip, remains in the portfolio. Why keep the original Apple Silicon MacBook Air in the range?MacBook Air 2022One of the considerations must be the supply chain.

Given Apple’s propensity to keep older iPhones in stock to keep the visible entry price as low as possible while new technology drives the starting price of the new handsets higher, it’s a surprise that Apple has not taken this approach with the MacBook previously… although the move from Intel to Apple Silicon mixing up the portfolio likely kept the focus on “business as usual” rather than tweaking the business model. Now that the former is the usual, the later can be addressed.
