> Missing opportunity to release 16GB version (...) This seems to defeat the whole purpose of a Raspberry Pi: cheap, almost disposable computer to tinker around with. A 8GB RPi4 board is already more expensive than some used desktop computers, and until recently some major hardware manufacturers (ahem apple) were still selling high-end laptops with less than 16GB of RAM. I understand asking for features such as PoE and SATA support, but 16GB of RAM feels like an attempt to make the RPi something that's not supposed to be.
