Yeah my argument isn’t “no 8GB laptops” (though let’s be honest, at $1,100 for even a MacBook Air they COULD do 16 without messing up their margins).
The argument is: no $1,600 MacBook PRO laptops with 8GB.
Max Tech’s video here does a great job of showing just how insufficient 8GB really truly is. With NO difference but RAM, even with some pretty basic everyday workloads, the 16GB version is VASTLY faster.
