macbook pro 13" fan here - you can throw up to 16 gigs or ram in it, and an ssd/hdd combo. wait another month for the new ones to come out though.
If I had to buy a non-apple laptop right now though with linux in mind, it'd likely be a hp envy 14 spectre at some big discount. other contenders would be the vaio z or samsung series 7. i'd usually recommend lenovo, but they haven't had any good minimal designs come out aside from the too-small x220
- crcastle 15y agoIs it undocumented that the MBPs can handle up to 16GB of RAM? According to apple, they all can only go up to 8GB (or 4 for older models). http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1270?viewlocale=en_US http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1270?viewlocale=en_US
- seltzered_ 15y agoyes. It's undocumented but several people have installed it successfully, and OWC has been selling 16gb kits for the past year or so: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/1333DDR3S16P/ http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/133... .
