- nurettin 2y agoSure, but what do you think would count as better?
- mdaniel 2y ago> Memory is cheap If you're running on commodity hardware, sure; if you happen to be a $1T company that solders 3x marked-up RAM then that's definitely not true https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-mac/macbook-pro/16-inch-space-black-standard-display-apple-m4-pro-with-14-core-cpu-and-20-core-gpu-24gb-memory-512gb https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-mac/macbook-pro/16-inch-space... is the entry model, and clicking the 48GB option dials the price up to $3k
- poisonborz 2y agoThe cheapest Apple laptops start with 16GB now. That's enough for quite a few desktop apps regardless of Electron.
