There's a possibility of a new M4 MBP in Q4 this year rather than 2025
as reviously rumoured. Now if an M4 Air were also launched at the same
time, I would be interested as the MBP might be beyond my pay scale!

The very end of that article does say that the M4 Air won't be out
before next year...

Yes I did see that but was just living in hope. I nearly bought an
M3 Air but with rumours of an M4 version starting to circulate
decided to hang on.
I doubt the M4 will make any difference to your day to day
activities. Is the M4 worth not having an M3 for 6-7 months?
A fair point :) The trouble is, with technology advancing so quickly, as
soon as you buy a product it's obsolete within a short space of time.
So, in an attempt to keep up with the latest technology, you end up
delaying and delaying and end up not actually purchasing anything!
(I´m perfectly happy with my M2 Air and I expect it to last me the
next 8-10 years)

Thereby proving that you didn't need the thing in the first place!

I think 'obsolete' is a bit strong, surely?

Yup. Especially with the M-series; even the four year old M1 is still a
very capable processor.
And don't call me Shirley ;)
