I’m not one to jump on the more DRAM or else wagon, but at this point, Apple needs to nut up and get all the 17 models up to 12GB of DRAM across the board. Even I’m tired of this nickel and diming BS and I still stand by my 8GB/512GB 13” MBP. However, if Apple want to compete with AI, and I’m unclear if they are resolved to do so, then it’s time to stop trying to increase their gross margins and provide some compelling hardware, especially on their flagship product. I’m not saying Apple has to decrease gross margin, but every time they make a consumer friendly update to their products (ie Mac mini and MBA/MBP starting at 16GB) they see increased sales, good will and positive PR. Then some internal gremlin in finance says, “people are too happy, let’s f*** this party up” and bean counter, feature drip Apple comes back with a vengeance. Stop it, Tim.
