G*d, I've been thinking about getting a new laptop too. It seems it's still normal to get 8Gb RAM laptops, just like my 2013 laptop, which I find quite limited for developing when you use VMs. I wonder if it's the right time to buy a new laptop that'll last. The general trend seems to be getting more and more cores in the desktop computers, whereas in laptops the most you can get is a 6-core. Which again, for VMs is a bit limited for my use case.
