Can anyone point to a volume hardware OEM that doesn't charge considerably for storage capacity or RAM? Off the cuff, let's go buy a laptop from Dell, Lenovo, HP, etc. Lenovo's T430u is $730 with 4GB of memory and a 320GB hard disk. An additional 4GB of memory is $160, even though the consumer wholesale price of such DIMMs is $20. The cost to upgrade to a single 8GB DIMM is $450, even though the consumer wholesale price of such DIMMs is $40-50. The cost to go from a 320GB 7200rpm hard disk to a 1TB 5400rpm hard disk is $170, even though the consumer wholesale price of such a disk is $110. ----- Every OEM does this for memory and storage, because to the end user, there is an obvious, measurable benefit. Twice the storage means they can store twice as many things. Twice the memory means they can do twice as many things at once. This is why Apple doesn't mention clock speeds for their custom ARM SoCs, but instead how many times faster it is -- 1.0GHz to 1.4GHz doesn't resonate with people as well as "twice as fast", especially when if you looked at just clock speed you might think it was only 40% faster.
