The problem is Apple and the apologists will tout how fast Apple silicon is and how great they perform and how you really really need that performance…

… Until it comes to RAM, when suddenly no one really needs the performance.

It’s a stupid lie, and it’s one that no one really believes.

The whole point of offering the limited entry specs is to push buyers into higher spec machines where the margins are fatter.
