Used MacBook Air:

I’m looking at used MacBook Air laptops on CL. These are about $1k new, (for the base model), but I’m cheap and want to spend half that or less. I’ve had pretty good luck w other Apple products lasting a while w heavy use. Here are my questions for the experts:

Battery life is important on this device, it’s a carry/travel machine. I have no idea what a good number is for battery cycles, is 90 a lot? Here is an ad I’m looking at:

Any other important info on these is appreciated, such as how old is still new enough, etc. Different ages of Mac products run different latest OSes, from what I can gather. Some people don’t like the latest OS, it seems. Thanks a million!
