why the hell is the memory still the factor in a $100 difference in apple product prices. the difference in cost between memory amounts in negligible at the sizes they are. 8gb is just about worthless unless you never plan to shoot photos, add music, or download apps. hell 16 is too little memory for these things to work right with average use![]()
And everyone else is starting to make 32GB standard at a lesser selling price than iPhone with bigger hd screens, faster processors, and Apple.... well...
And to your point, the cost of this storage is about 70% less than it was when the first iPhone came out.
Cheaper iMac's.... hmmm interesting...
But how can they make it cheaper? Please no core i3, perhaps a slower clocked i5? Smaller hard drive? The cheapest iMac already uses Intel integrated graphics too.
This is Apple. Cheaper means $100 drop back to the price it was when it had a dvd burner inside and came with a remote. Then they'll axe ram or something sinister. Or put in cheaper, slower hard drives and claim they are faster because of the next version of OSX. And people will act like someone just resurrected Jobs and cheer.... forgetting they've been being screwed $$$ wise on the new iMac and were slandering it for the past year and a half.
