8GB RAM in M3 MacBook Pro Proves the Bottleneck in Real-World Tests

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Ok but……who the hell runs blender and FFP in 8GB?
The vast majority of users are NOT running pro apps like that.
It’s just a name. If you’re actually running pro stuff, you’d be an idiot to run that on 8Gb no matter what machine.
Apple’s argument that it’s the same as 16gb is dumb, but anyone actually using pro apps on 8Gb is dumber. The majority of browser(with sane numbers of tabs)/iPhoto/office users really are probably not gonna notice.
Well if that's the argument then they are also not gonna notice the M1 or M3 under the hood. Both chips are pretty good.
Heck even an older Intel chip should work fine in 2023 under those workloads.
