You can justify this all you want, but the truth is, for the price point, Apple is failing its customers with its minimum memory offering. It’s not about what works: it’s about the perception customers have of the company, and this looks cheap. Apple is a premium offering and questions like these are a product management failure that can damage the brand. If you find yourself defending your product for looking inferior as a premium positioned product you have already made terrible mistakes. Apple should raise ram minimums simply to eliminate the perception of value questions. God knows (as does every investor) that they have the margin to do it.
