Could also consider an M1. Here's a new M1 MAX 64GB RAM & 4TB hdd for $2999 -- https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1668351-REG/apple_mbp...

#22You mentioned wanting to use dual-monitors. MacBook Air only supports one external monitor. https://www.apple.com/macbook-air-13-and-15-m2/specs/
Obligatory: You can buy a cheapo $50 DisplayLink USB adapter to run a second monitor up to 1080p[1]. I have a really old Monoprice USB 2.0 adapter I still use that even has my security camera video feeds on. Does totally fine.
1. They have USB 3.0 ones that do 1440p, but I've tried a lot of them and haven't found one with good performance on Mac.

I think he means dual monitors in the sense of laptop+external monitor.
