Apple has a memory problem and we're all paying for it::Apple still sells expensive "Pro" computers with just 8GB of RAM and charges a fortune for more.

"we're all paying for it"

Journalism these days is fucking awful

It's from a news organisation called "MacWorld". What were you expecting exactly?

Well I do think the high cost of expansion RAM in Apple products is tied to school shootings, gerrymandering, and the prison industrial complex.

That is in the context of “Apple customers”.

Just a thought.

If I'm being generous, it's macworld.com speaking to an audience of Apple users.

But no, I am not paying for it. I'm over here drooling at M1 chips, but then stopping when I see the baggage that comes with it.

Ms are only worth drooling over as far as power consumption. Relatively cheap 7840u outperforms M2 in every benchmark. I9s are just in a completely different league.

I'll wait for Snapdragon X Elite from a more reasonable company or a RISC-V chip in a Linux laptop if stars really align.
