Obviously this article isn't written for the technically-oriented, for those who might say "well duh".
I do find it surprising you can still find computers that come with just a spinning rust drive, let alone in a "premium" machine like the Mac is advertised as.
- praveenscience 7y agoI thought most of the Windows Machines you buy come with 5400 RPM spinning 1 TB HDD and not much people fancy the 256 GB costlier version of SSD. At least, this is the case in India.
