Run CPU and GPU intensive Scratch projects without ever needing to use TurboWarp, M1 is not just a next step for Mac — it’s another level entirely for Scratchers. No fan. No noise. Just Air. Since Scratch is so memory intensive sometimes, the unified 8GB LPDDR4 memory and the speedy 256GB SSD will perform extremely well if you want to load frame by frame animations with thousands of costumes. More power. Wakes instantly. Which means when you want to get back to the forums or making your among us project in Scratch, you don't even have to wait.

Retina display. Lifelike colours. For unreal beauty. See Scratch Cat in an amazing 2560x1600 native resolution 60Hz Retina display with P3 colour accuracy. This allows you to see the orange in Scratch like never before. When a keyboard types like a dream and still does a whole lot more: that’s magic. The new Magic Keyboard allows you to type your forum rants as fast as you can type, without every hurting your hands. Trackpad with precise control and plenty of room to swipe, pinch, or zoom, so move around the code in griffpatch's projects with no lag and with ease.

And with 16 hours of battery life, you can just use Scratch all day long in your bed without ever needing to wake up for charging. Safari 15 and Chrome 100 on M1 allows you to get INSANE speeds running Scratch (since it uses JavaScript) so you don't ever have to worry about your battery draining quickly because you spent 3 hours playing Getting Over It.

The M1 MacBook Air is the PERFECT laptop for Scratch, so instead of Scratchers using restricted Chromebooks with a bad CPU and terrible RAM, give them the M1, so they can Scratch on better than ever before. Give every Scratcher an M1 MacBook Air, for a Scratch experience, never seen before.

$999 is the only problem….

What if people are still using Windows 11 (or 10) and enjoying using it?

sUPPORT - i WANT A MACBOOK!111111111

Easy workaround
Go to McDonalds, ask for a Big Mac, ask your family for a book, then ask a licensed pilot to take you up in the air, get a chip (lays) and write M1 and put it in the book, tape the big mac to the book and throw it out of the plane. Boom! M1 MacBook Air

It's made of Aluminium so when you see someone who said “No Support” on your suggestion and you punch your MacBook in rage, it won't break (probably)

They could use Virtualization Software like Parallels to run Windows 11 on it. Not a problem. Ask Scratch Tech Tips™ for more info.

But plane ticket is more expensive than MacBook so no support.

There are 88,251,309 scratchers. 88,251,309 x 999 = 88163057691. That isn't that much for Scratch, right?

Edit: Did a few more calculations, and found 8.5518166e+12 as the final price. Still, not that much. Just may be a little difficult.

88Million isn't that much, with some discounts by Tim Apple and donations from Yi Long Musk, we should be good…
