My MBA M1 is already plenty fast for my needs.

So’s your Prius but wouldn’t it be nice if it was as fast as a Tesla Plaid when one of those rolling-coal pickups pulled up beside you at the light?
Wrong analogy, I think.
The MBA is already as fast as the Tesla Plaid, only lst for the first 1000 feet of the first mile.
This is more like adding a radiator to an older air-cooled Porsche, if you like car comparisons.

I never use a laptop actually on my lap, so I would do this immediately, if I had one. Heat is the enemy of electronics, so I would actually think this mod might increase reliability and longevity.
