I've already been using Linux for ten years, it definitely puts the fun back into computing. This would actually be primarily to know how to install it on a Mac, because when offering to install Linux as a replacement for Windows in groups I am part of, there have been multiple requests for doing so on a Mac. Unfortunately always had to answer I've never done so, so couldn't promise anything.
Anyway, is €375 for an Apple MacBook Air 2020 M1, 256GB a good price?
If you're dual booting which is what they recommend, you should probably get a 512 GB model
