The 2018 MBA has the "fixed" post-recall keyboard in it. They are still failing unfortunately. The whole design is flawed.

Back on my T440 now which has been upgraded somewhat with a FHD screen, T450 trackpad, extended battery. It's about the same as the MBA now but works properly and the keyboard isn't ass. Plus I've got another one in the cupboard if this one breaks.

I am mostly a terminal user / software dude so I keep my workload remote in a nice AMI image in AWS and fire it up on whatever hardware I need to do the job at the time. I can upgrade to a 72 core machine with with 144GB of RAM for a couple of hours if I need some grunt. Costs a fuck load less than buying one as well. My entire AWS bill is about $30 a month.
