    …and they had only embraced PowerPC maybe 12 years earlier in the early 90s, if I recall correctly.

  I think my computer is Intel, not Silicon, if that says anything

    A 2015 model is definitely going to be Intel, that was the only thing they made at the time

    Model numbers are on the bottom of the computer printed in light grey on the aluminum.

    If your computer is an A1466 It’s the most common kind of air, and fairly well supported in a few distros.
