Anyone consider a Dynabook? I was looking for something lightweight. This is < 2 lb for a 13.3".

From what I read they are made in Japan to very high quality standards.

I can't believe I'm considering going back to Windows, but I consider the MBPs too heavy and the last time I tried an M1 MBA, it cause me headaches. I might give the M1 MBA another try but if that doesn't work, I'll have to switch to windows.

Dynabook is or was Toshiba. I had a Toshiba notebook computer that I used for years even after I purchased my first MacBook. I finally gave it away to Good Will. It was still working, slow, but everything worked including the original WiFi card.

Yes, it was Toshiba. They are now independent.
