the problem isn't whether 8 GB are enough for the average joe. the problem is Apple are charging 1599$ for an 8 GB laptop. even for that price, 16 GB are really pushing it — especially with only 512 GB of storage space.

so yes, the problem is Apple are being greedy.

For 1599, I would expect at least 16Gb/1Tb

For $1599, it should be 32GB RAM, 2TB storage.

For $1599, I should get 500 lbs. of repetitive, manufactured, internet outrage!

How will I feed my kids without a daily dose of outrage?

My only real skill is being outraged about some phone or computer spec, regardless of the real world utility or user experience, so I’ll be out of work if I don’t work up a good lather of outrage!

What outrage do we have planned for tomorrow? I need to eat!

For $1599, it should be 64GB RAM, 4TB storage

Am I doing it right?
