I know quite a few people who require >16GB, and not one of them is a power user nor do they use a VM. What they do is edit large amounts of 4K video in FCP, and they're rather screwed without an actual MacBook Pro. No, there are n

You should check out the Wiki article on the Soviet submarine K-219. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_submarine_K-219 Short version: after she went down, someone went down and ripped off the nuclear missile doors,

My suspicion, without a background in marketing, is that marketing concepts towards males are more clearly identified in terms that easily apply to gaming. Men like sports: winning, fighting, competition, stealth, dominance. Some men don
