One example, just so you know how much you are being ripped off... Yes, this is actually a trivial amount of time even if you do it once a decade.
Last time I checked buying 32 GB of ram for the imac was about $175, apple took $850 to upgrade from the base 8 GB to 32 GB...
Replacing them wouldn't take many minutes.
(Or - you could buy 64 GB for $350 (something apple didn't even offer, I guess the uint32 would overflow)).
- FireBeyond 6y agoAnd realizing that $850 is effectively for 24GB, because Apple was already compensated for the 8GB in the base price.
- gowld 6y agoUpgrading RAM is much easier than upgrading storage, since storage is stateful and backups are never quite right.
- tjoff 6y agoThat doesn't apply on a new machine.
